Pros

-Pay starts at 40k -Unlimited PTO -Benefits and 401K -Everyone will make you feel welcome -Weekly catered lunch -Fully stocked snack room -Plenty of events with prizes, food, and beer You are treated like an adult and don't have to ask for permission on everything. The culture is, "Be your own CEO" and for the most part you can implement ideas and make decisions without a crazy amount of push back. I believe most people truly care about one another at ChargeItPro. My time here taught me a lot professionally and I wouldn't trade that experience for anything.

Cons

-This job has you feeling like you're drowning in work nonstop -Your work life balance can get out of control very quickly -You will be slammed the entire time and do not expect to leave on time -You are expected to be available more times than not Be prepared to take your work laptop home and install Slack on your phone. You will get constant contact morning, noon, and night be it from the company or merchants looking for help. They will never explicitly tell you that you have to be on top of this once you leave the office, but you'd be a fool not to. The department is constantly understaffed between people being sick, on vacation, doing training, or leaving the company. Pair that with the constant software issues, outages, updates, multiple projects needing attention, installs, and your open ongoing tickets there will never be an ounce of down time. Many people skip lunches, breaks, and stay long after they were supposed to go home because of the constant needs and deadlines. That work can continue into the weekend sometimes as well. You will also be on call for a week every so often so be prepared to set aside even more time for after hours work, but at least there is some bonus money for doing so. Mind you that you are salary so no overtime. Also, in support, you may have to work holidays that others in the company get to take off. I'm not going to tell you that you are going to be working 60-80 hours a week, but I will let you know that work will be on your mind over anything else. If you are scared of working hard or value your time away from the office then look elsewhere.

Pros

We've experienced significant change to improve ourselves. There were changes to leadership and to the way we hold ourselves accountable. We are working towards a flat organization as opposed to a top/down approach which has allowed many front line people a voice to what changes need to happen. I've seen several changes occur, some quickly based on feedback, some slowly because of the impact it has on other teams. A change in leadership and new team members in our development team has allowed us to be more focused and organized on consistently improving the viability of our products while also working on the roadmap to new products. We added new people in Accounting, Support, Sales Ops, Dev, and Tech Support. We see a lot of opportunity so it's a matter of us figuring out the best way to work together in order to grow the company. We're doing our best to break down walls and improve communication so it feels like the small, nimble company that we truly are.

Cons

With changes comes transition. We experienced turnover in the last year as we held ourselves accountable to higher standards. It's not everyone's cup of tea, so it's good to understand what type of hard work and expectations leadership expects of you. None of it is out of control, but they do have expected commitment levels.
