Marketing & Start-Up Operations Intern - Anonymous employee Enclosed Employee Review

Open work environment, with friendly and supportive coworkers. Plus management is always easy to talk to. Is a startup so has lots of room to grow, with plenty of opportunity for those who think outside the box. Has plenty of parking, which in San Fransisco is very rare.

Is a startup so you will be given different tasks. Be open to learning new things.

The concept is a good one and the CEO, Antonia Townsend, is very very smart. She cares about the details and is set on her concept. She is a very talented marketer and has a pretty good head for finance.

The CEO has been running the business without senior executive assistance for several years. She is used to doing things "her way" and doesn't always seem receptive to different solutions. She micromanages and isn't used to managing by outcomes. She manages actual process, even if it isn't optimum. When she learns how to delegate at a senior level, she will be a great CEO. If you are applying as an executive, probe for how you would be managed and evaluated.
