Tremendous growth potential - Marketing Associate FIREapps Employee Review

The executive staff I have had the pleasure of working under and with are amongst the most compassionate and intelligent people I have ever witnessed. Now, this combination in a team is perfect as they will lead you and challenge you in ways to grow career-wise and also as an individual. The company comes of as a high-energy, market-leader tech company, and I would say that is exactly what they are. The CEO is one of the most intelligent individuals I have ever met, both business-minded and people-wise. Meetings with him I always leave inspired and driven to do more.

If you are unwilling to learn this niche market and do not have the desire to work hard and grow as an individual, then one would list cons here. However, I am hardworking and love learning so I have absolutely no cons to list here. I would expect this tech to be in Silicone Valley, but I am very glad they are based in beautiful Scottsdale.

There are many great things about this company. First of all, the work environment is far better than other companies I have worked for. You get the sense that upper management cares about your ideas and thoughts, and that they welcome feedback. The C-suite members are incredibly personal, and give you the time of day. Everyone here seems to be very dedicated to building a great company and product, and to providing immense value to their clients. The people are all very friendly and willing to help you learn and grow. I feel like I have gained quite a few skills while working here, and I've been here for a little over a year. There's definitely a feeling of family and camaraderie here. Since this is still a smaller company, some of the processes you may expect from a larger company are still being hashed out, albeit quickly and with high priority. For example, one of the things the company has been focusing more on is giving better reviews of work performance, and also training for employees. Also, there has been some turnover in the past, but management has taken strides to mitigate those issues.

It can be a little intimidating at first to jump into such a complex niche market, especially with little prior experience. The information and knowledge is definitely attainable, but it will require (as with most other things) a can-do, go-getter attitude when it comes to self-education. If you're the type of person who likes a challenging work environment with increasing responsibilities, and are a self-manager when it comes to learning and career growth, then you may perform well here. Don't expect to know everything the first few months: the subject matter is complex and multi-faceted.
