Pros

- Most of my coworkers were awesome to be around! My coworkers were the ones that made the workplace fun. The ones that weren't would usually work themselves out of the company within a year. - Once the software was mastered, the basic functions of the position were pretty easy - Plenty of opportunities to be recognized through quarterly "Values Awards" - Ability to work from home - Nice bonus potential - No strict start and end time - One executive is taking a step down while another is stepping up. I think this is a better shift at their strengths and will actually lead to some positive changes - Once you are hired and you are competent at your job, I felt like my job was pretty secure.

Cons

- Due to the nature of the business, I'd get a lot of rush requests. It was even more nerve racking when the client didn't have a tight deadline, just wanted the quote by the "end of the day" for a meeting. Not much the company can do about that, but the stress that it caused was a major factor in my decision to leave. - Understaffed for their expectations - Wanted to be the company that listens to their employees and takes feedback, but it's really only true when you're suggesting more things YOU can do, it wasn't so true when you discussed how the company as a whole is running, or if you critiqued how the company was fulfilling the values - No room to move up in the company. While they encouraged me to take on projects outside my job title, they didn't give me the guidance or time to do it. Also, with a small company, you hope that at the very least if you can't move up, you can at least delegate the menial tasks to newer hires. This ended up not being the case as I was more efficient in my position, so I was the one that had "more time" to take on the extra "office management" tasks. - Since you can work from home, forget about taking a sick day (which is fine since you're just given blanket PTO, but if you really need the day off, you're still pressured to sign on).

Pros

Results only work environment. We are trusted to get our jobs done and hit our individual metrics regardless of time of day we get the work done. Amazing teammates. I’ve never worked somewhere where you do your part of the process and hand the work off to a colleague and never have to worry about if it’s going to get done or not. And it will be done well! Leadership is willing to share in the successes of the company with quarterly and annual bonuses along with profit sharing and bonus payouts when company hits company wide profitability.

Cons

Smaller team of 10 ish which means career paths are not super deep however the flexibility of the work and the incredible company culture make it a moot point.

Pros

I feel like I have always had the opportunity to define my position and create my own value here. Through a very rigorous hiring process, the management AND employees get a say in who will be working hand-in-hand with them through their tenure. With a very low turnover rate and most employees staying for the better part of a decade (I'm currently sitting at 12 years), we get to know each other, lean on each other in our weaknesses and encourage each others' strengths. The management truly cares about not just our job performance, but our everyday lives and is careful to consider that a healthy and happy human creates a productive and valuable employee. We have created a professional environment that makes our clients believe we are a large company, but are so tight-knit that we treat each other like family. We are comfortable enough to get upset at each other, work it out, and laugh with each other 10 seconds later. If you want advancement, create it! The management trusts their employees enough to listen to them; if it'll benefit everyone, you can create growth in or out of your hired positions. Post-covid, it's realized that work-from-home will stay and is encouraged - however, we always make time to come into the office to say hi, or play online games together once a month just to get together outside of the realms of normal work responsibilities.

Cons

Sometimes we are asked to go outside of our comfort zone. While this isn't necessarily a negative thing, sometimes it does interfere with our normal duties that cause wheels to proverbially spin if deadlines are tight or work-loads are overbearing.
