Comfortable work environment...lacking basic management - Anonymous employee CTAC Employee Review

- Open-door policy with approachable leadership - Encourages professional development and learning - Selfless team culture — everyone lifts each other up and shares knowledge freely

No cons. My experience was overwhelmingly positive.

CTAC is a small company, so employees get to wear many hats and have a lot of opportunities to branch out and try something outside their job scope... and training to maintain skill levels is offered and available. Everyone is sociable and the work environment is friendly. The CTAC team is professional and follows policies responsibly with an open mind to individual circumstances (I had a close family member, and not just a child, who was seriously ill and CTAC gave me their full support). My coworkers are responsible people and we get to manage our own tasks and deadlines with plenty of feedback and collaboration, so I can depend on them. Managers are flexible, and open to suggestions and requests, and work with my skillset and time management. The office space is half open half closed environment, where there are plenty of choice spots for small conference calls or undisturbed tasks. No one looks over my shoulder if I have to make a short personal call or have an afternoon snack. It's a mac environment, so work-life runs smoothly with reliable hardware, but if I need anything else, I know that if it's within reason, it will happen. Being a long-term employee is nice, too.

Newcomers that don't learn the ropes first and don't show promise of contribution won't fit into company policies and culture. It will be hard to fit in if you are not proactive or motivated, so you have to remember to keep an open mind. Our projects can be very fast-paced. Office can be cold, sometimes, so layers are a must.
