Pros

The people at ClearGov are talented, hardworking, and genuinely care about helping local government clients succeed. The product solves a real problem, and prior to the merger, the culture was collaborative, employee-focused, and supportive.

Cons

The company has changed significantly since the merger with Gravity. Many of the benefits and cultural aspects that made ClearGov a great place to work have either been reduced or eliminated. Employee morale has noticeably declined, and leadership appears increasingly disconnected from the concerns of the people doing the day-to-day work. Unlimited PTO was removed for 2027, which felt like a step backward and signaled a shift away from trusting employees. Communication from leadership has often lacked transparency, especially around major organizational decisions. Many employees feel that business objectives are prioritized over employee well-being, with little consideration given to how changes impact the teams expected to execute them. There has also been a noticeable loss of the close-knit startup culture that originally attracted many employees. Decisions feel more corporate, and employee feedback does not appear to carry much weight.

Pros

People were decent before the merger. Meet ups were okay because the hotels were nice and everything was paid for.

Cons

They are deleting negatives reviews so watch for that. When I first started working for the company they had a 4.4 rating on glassdoor, that was before the merger. The current CEO is a very strange guy, he plays like he is a "super cool" and relaxed CEO but he is not. He is a big baby when it comes to tech issues and does not seem to know what he is doing. Everyone just seems to be winging it on the C suite level. My role had no upward mobility and my manager was very controlling with any type of movement within the company at all. The company was so much better before the merger and the fact that many people working for the company are from our competitors is truly interesting. ClearGov was proud of being a remote work environment and now all positions are becoming hybrid, offices are popping up around the USA. Managers are stressed out and everyone is looking at the next person on what to do.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We recognize that periods of significant change can create uncertainty and that not every employee will experience that transition in the same way. The merger brought new opportunities, new challenges, and changes to how we operate as an organization. While we respect your perspective, our experience today includes many employees who are building meaningful careers, taking on new responsibilities, and helping shape the future of the company. We continue to invest in leadership, career development, and creating an environment where employees can grow and contribute. We also want to clarify that ClearGov does not remove reviews based on sentiment, whether positive or negative. We believe open feedback is important and welcome a diversity of viewpoints. We appreciate your contributions to the company and wish you the best moving forward.
