Working to navigate out of some pretty PR rough waters/sins of the past Have a tendency to try to boil the ocean

Advice to Management

Gain and maintain focus on only as many projects as your teams can handle. remember that new initiatives need to be balanced with existing projects, maintenance and constant system improvements. In software there is rarely, if even a project that is one and done... maintenance, improvement and iteration never ends until its time to EOL.

Pros

Despite some bad article online, this is actually good place to work Great co-workers to work with Good product and i am happy that i can contribute The idea is great, and it is leading the industry better work-life balance than before

Cons

bad reputation caused by misleading article and news online management is a little weird the market is not good for its business now ironically, bad benefits for a hr-benefits company seriously, crappy food.

Pros

The people are smart, friendly, generally care about one another and the mission of the company. There is a lot of autonomy and room to stretch yourself. Fresh outside-of-the-box thinking is encouraged. Lots of opportunities for learning and growth, there are many examples of people moving departments to follow career interests.

Cons

Move a little faster to recognize and solve problems. Hold people equally accountable across different functions and levels.

Advice to Management

Continue your efforts to connect with people and share authentic stories around the mission, the challenges, and what is most exciting.

Pros

It's a great place to make an impact. I have the opportunity to take on exciting challenges on a regular basis. Not only do I get to learn and grow in the process, but I also get to see first hand how my work impacts the success of the organization. I love that I get to work with a group of dedicated, talented, curious, and diverse people as well. Together we do some really cool things. The workplace culture is... great - everyone is helpful and I can see our sales and customer experience teams doing the right thing for our customers on a regular basis. Also, I can see and believe in our path to success.

Cons

I thrive in an environment of change, and we're pretty good at getting the right people involved in changes, but we do make changes quickly. If that's not your thing, I could see it being challenging.

Advice to Management

Keep investing in our people and culture. It's paying dividends.

Pros

Food, location, opportunities, connection making.

Cons

Probably everything else was terrible.
