Pros

Development here is truly agile, each team really owns it own process. There is autonomy such that everyone has a say and entire products can be built from anyone's good ideas. Product teams here are well organized and have clear directions.

Cons

The company is going through growing pains and as such some teams are over managed and some lack leadership.

Pros

This company is incredible. I started at Workiva straight out of college and I could not imagine life at another company. Not only have I been able to grow as a professional, I have also learned an incredible amount about business, our industry and how our software is making a difference. Our culture is one of a software company that is growing and making changes in the industry. We have healthy snacks, free coffee and soda, a game room, free health care and offices in three countries. In addition to all these incredible perks, we also foster a culture of creative freedom. We work hard, but it's because we want to. Anyone at this company is driven to continue the growth and innovation that we have already fostered. We grow as a company through the creativity of our employees and through the ideas of the people we work with day in and day out. The people that we work with side by side are not only our co-workers but friends that we trust and enjoy spending time with. Workiva employees are always up to try new things inside and outside the work place.

Cons

In the area that I work in, you have a huge support group, but you have to be able to manage your own time and work. Being such a flat organization, you have to remember that even if your title doesn't change, your responsibilities, project loads and work do change and people recognize that.

Pros

Workiva offers a work environment like nothing I have ever experienced. I enjoy getting in my car and driving an hour knowing I get to walk into Workiva with a smile on my face. No two days are alike, and that is awesome. I love setting up documents and presentations in our application for customers. The application is user friendly and easy to fall in love with. The layout of our new location also allows for more interaction with all departments. We work for a unique company that is focused on the employees and customers alike. Our benefits are top notch and there are so many perks along the way. My coworkers make the day worthwhile and my managers encourage us to constantly get involved with all the products we offer. There really is no limit to what we can get involved in.

Cons

You have to be on your toes. We have a cloud based structure, and everyday there are constant improvements. Sometimes it takes some getting used to when new features are released. Change can be hard for some, but it's good to remember the change here is always for the better.
