Pros

- The new team is smart, approachable, and hard-working. Management is flat, appreciative, and communicates changes clearly. - Fun, outside-of-work socials: PS team gets together for drinks/breakfast/dinner (but these events are totally optional). - The office is located in, in my humble opinion, the best building in Iowa City: ceiling-to-floor windows in the heart of the downtown area (Park@201). - Office dress is casual. - The PS floor is also female-friendly; no casual sexism often present in business environments. - Actually taking a lunch break is encouraged, barring the occasional client meeting.

Cons

The company has undergone some major management changes in the last year. While these changes are moving the company in the right direction, there's a lot to be done. Management is aware of this and is working on making those changes.

Thank you for the feedback. We believe our values align with employing smart, approachable, and hard-working employees. As a fast growing company our employees are the most important part of what Meta does. The leadership change has brought some exciting changes and those leaders have looked to employees for their thoughts and input in regards to how we proceed forward as a company. We appreciate the advice and will continue to do so as a team.

Pros

The work environment is a great place to learn the basics of a company's operations and working in an office. The internship was very helpful in developing my professional communication skills and comfortability within an office space. The hours were very flexible and the pay was good. Good learning space for interns and questions are encouraged. I was able to collaborate with almost every department of the company for a well-rounded learning experience.

Cons

It is right in the downtown Iowa City area, so I ended up eating out a lot at the local restaurants.

Pros

I'm a long-time former employee, and had I not decided to pursue my passions outside the software industry I would very likely be back at MetaCommunications. I've seen how a lot of companies function, and have owned/operated my own business as well. And from that perspective I can say MetaCommunications is a great place to work. Sure...they had some growing pains in the early years, but what company doesn't?

Cons

I don't really have any Cons...but maybe a word of advice. If you have the drive and desire, and want the opportunity to become the best at what you do - whether it's programming, support, professional services, sales, marketing, or whatever - then MetaCommunications is a fantastic environment. If you want to become a true professional in your career, MetaCommunications is the place for you. If you are simply looking for a "job" where you come to work, put your time in, and nothing further with no real true ambitions or desires, then MetaCommunications may not be for you. And I say that for both your and the company's benefit. Seriously - look inside yourself, do some soul searching, and ask yourself what it is you really want to achieve in your professional career - if you have the inner passion, drive, and desire, then MetaCommunications will help you achieve it.
