Pros
-Challenging, transformational work that actually requires you to think. My brain stays engaged, which matters to me. -Progressive thinking around innovation and how we evolve, rather than defaulting to “this is how we’ve always done it.” Hard habit for some to break. -Genuinely customer-focused teammates. People are noticeably bothered when we miss the mark for customers—and that shows up in how we operate. -Real investment in the right software and tools, not just talk about modernization. -A complete shift in the feel of the environment in just seven months. When I joined, teams were more siloed by business line. Now I know who my peers are across the organization, and we actively share stories, lessons learned, and resources. That “been there, done that” knowledge sharing has improved efficiency and reduced wheel-reinventing. -A new leadership team that brings specific, needed expertise for this next phase of the company. -No micromanagement. Trust and accountability are real. -Decision-making can be refreshingly fast. Some calls are made much quicker than at most companies I’ve worked for, while others are thoughtfully assessed or clearly owned by a single decision-maker. -The PTO policy is genuinely supported. My manager has proactively encouraged time off when I’ve been pushing too hard—my choice to do so, but it’s meaningful to have leadership paying attention. In one situation, we actually spent a bit more money to engage some others while reducing stress from workload for me. Because I know some people really do read these looking for real commentary against some of the bot accounts, I thought I would share a post I shared on social media. --- Hard to believe it’s only been six months since I joined Togetherwork, but in that time I’ve had a real opportunity to see how the company operates during moments that matter. Recently, I attended our 2026 Revenue Kickoff, where leadership shared clear roadmaps for the next phase of the business across our SaaS portfolio. What stood out wasn’t just the strategy or the results (which were genuinely strong), but the way people showed up for one another. There was real, visible celebration of teammates’ wins—applause, cheers, photos, and a lot of genuine pride in each other’s success. It didn’t feel performative or competitive. It felt like people rooting for one another, which says a lot about the culture here. What I appreciate most is that Togetherwork doesn’t pretend it’s “done.” We’ve made meaningful progress, but we’re also honest about the work still ahead of us. That honesty creates space for improvement, learning, and shared ownership of where we’re going next. Leadership is engaged, present, and clear about expectations, while still encouraging collaboration and recognition across teams. This is a place that values momentum and improvement over perfection. It’s a good fit for people who care about building something better over time, who appreciate transparency, and who want to work alongside teammates that genuinely support one another. Moments like the ones I’ve experienced here are motivating because they offer a glimpse of what’s possible if we keep improving—together.
Cons
Togetherwork is in a period of evolution as we continue leveling up programs, processes, and ways of working. While that hasn’t been a negative for me, it can feel disruptive for people who strongly prefer a steady-state environment. There’s still change happening, and I expect that to continue for another several months. That said, so much progress has already been made that it’s less about upheaval and more about refinement—honestly, it would make an interesting case study in organizational growth. On a much lighter note, our blend of remote and hybrid work means a lot of video calls. I don’t mind the setup at all, but it has forced me to retire my big headphones in favor of earbuds… and my newest pair isn’t winning any comfort awards. Completely a personal choice, but choose good headphones!
