Pros

Our leadership encourages employees to think different and innovate to succeed even on non-traditional paths. Great to be founder of riskmethods and having established a management team that not only listens to our team members but also consider team-inputs having an impact on decisions. Our customer-statisfaction is extremely high (we have industry leading 2-digit negative churn rates!) and customers are strong advocates in the market: it´s a positive setting if your are in a CSM role and face customers every day (allows to support their journey in maturity and not managing complaints all the day), marketing roles (you get customer approvals for collaterals, webinar participations etc. without begging) and sales & sales development (I think it´s self-explaining how nice it is having a sexy product with strong demand and plenty of customer references to leverage). Many management or teamlead positions are held by employees that were promoted - this shows the job opportunities in a growing company. The office space in the US is awesome: great kitchen with full (free) catering services, a good gym inside the building and plenty of included offerings (yoga, running,...) and finally a nice view on Boston from floor 18.

Cons

If you expect to work in an environement where every process, role, organizational set-up is already built-out - better step back. We have set professional processes, organization design and leverage state-of-the-art tools but always open for better "stuff" to establish and adapt quickly. The office space needs to be expanded due to the strong growth, but management is already checking out additional space on same floor of the current building.

Pros

riskmethods is a great place to work. No one told me to write this review or what to write... and my review is anonymous... I've been at riskmethods less than 6 months, came from a much larger sales org, and very much enjoying my time here. The solution the company offers is a market leader in a growing space (supply chain risk management). The UX is excellent, and the list of won logos is impressive and growing. There is a good deal of autonomy here, hence it is important to be self motivated. The company culture is excellent and the executive leadership team is highly transparent about key decisions made at their level. Very well organized company with a great product. Refreshing to be here after coming from a much larger org.

Cons

Not many to speak of... but being a smaller org (200+- employees), the account executives tend to demo the solution on their own... but there is a very reasonable ramp up period where you'll be trained on how to present the solution independently; and more custom demos towards the end of the sales cycle you'll receive support from the solution consulting team. Good benefits for a smaller org, there is 401K, health, dental, etc... and work/life balance is good.
