Pros

Culture, Food, and People are great.

Cons

PS department was/is actively looking to use artificial intelligence for XBRL tagging (which is the primary role of a PSM). There’s also not much room for upper mobility and too niche of a skill set to be marketable elsewhere if you stay too long.

Women in Tech Look Elsewhere

Pros

1) Laid-back environment 2) Flexible work hours

Cons

1) The company is a good-ole boy network. 2) Women are rarely hired into technical roles. When they are, they have to outperform just to be noticed, but are never rewarded. 2) The company tries to promote itself as supportive of female tech workers, but look closely at the photographs in the articles. They send the same (~6) women to all industry events, because that's all they have. 3) If you're somebody's sister, that's an exception. Nepotism reigns. 4) Pay is well below industry average. 5) No 401-K contribution matching.

Workiva Response

We are very fortunate to have a group of female engineers that are very active in promoting Workiva at networking events and conferences. We recognize that there is always room for improvement with gender diversity, especially in tech. This group of women have chosen to help us address this challenge. If you would like to help make a positive impact, please reach out to us at talentacquisition@workiva.com and we would be very open to your suggestions.

Pros

Opportunity is there if you want it. The company makes you feel appreciated. Great culture. Flexible working hour and good benefits.

Cons

Maybe a bit overly relaxed. Could be more aggressive and structured. No 401k match as a lot already expressed.
