Pros
Lots of opportunities for learning and growth. Team was kind, supportive, and lots of fun. Kevin Getch provided strong thought leadership and a positive, visionary attitude that inspired the team. Benefits improved over time and were always improving based on feedback from the team, which was encouraged. Constructive feedback was a regular part of each week, which I enjoyed and benefited from. There was a strong focus on planning fun events to encourage a strong company culture. Education was also emphasized, and we attended one-two conferences per year, which were great learning and networking opportunities. I also enjoyed the small size of the company, which enabled me to contribute in a meaningful way. Communication between departments was strong, so I learned a great deal about design and development. Lots of philosophical discussions developed that helped shape who I am as a marketer. Team was able to work from home 2x per week, which was a huge benefit for me, as I am a natural introvert and work best with a mix of quiet and collaboration.
Cons
Pay was on the low end of the spectrum when I worked there, and after-hours work was sometimes required to keep up with the workload. However, I hear after-hours work is now discouraged, so I assume workload has stabilized. This is definitely an important part of accommodating individuals with families, who can be some of the most dependable employees.
