Pros

Talented people and good opportunities for lateral transfers.

Cons

Lower than industry standard salaries and "flat" compensation schedule: one of those places you leave for a few years in order to jump back at the salary you really want.

Thanks so much for the feedback, we always appreciate it. I agree we do have talented people, and we're always on the hunt for more. As for lower than industry standard salaries and "flat" compensation schedules, I respectfully disagree. Do we pay as much as Google or some of the bigger tech names? No. Do we pay as well as 50-100 person tech companies? I'd say yes. As for the flat/lateral comment, we reward people when they prove great value. Over the last few years we promoted and rewarded many high performers with increased title, responsibility and compensation. Appreciate the feedback, hope you landed in a fantastic place. Best of luck!

Pros

CEO is laser focused on the success of the company. Every one on the team is a self-starter and committed to adding the most value possible. The ability to work from home is a great perk

Cons

We are very lean, therefore, there are times where we are unable to take on as many projects as we would like.

Pros

The people are great. Everyone was extremely helpful when I first started and was asking hundreds of questions. There's a lot of potential to have a significant impact on the direction of the company. Management does a good job of listening and supporting new ideas. The work/life balance is excellent. Need to step out for a doctor's appointment? No problem. Need to work from home because you're getting furniture delivered? Sounds good. Would you rather be the type of person that gets in at 6 and leaves at 3? Go for it. There's a three-day prototype period every couple of weeks that allows you the freedom to work on any pet projects you've been bouncing around in your head. There's a kegerator with two taps that always has good beer. It's the place to post up at the end of the week.

Cons

Like in pretty much all companies that get to HomeFinder's size there tend to be silos. The kegerator in the kitchen helps break those down but some still remain. Sometimes you can get bogged down with unnecessary meetings but that's pretty much all companies.
