Work-life balance is second to none (I'm not joking, it's incredible) Super flat hierarchy Many smart coworkers Teammates are like family Actively encourages collaboration Breakfast daily Monthly Lunches Paid Company Outings (Playland, Halloween party etc)

Cons

Advice to Management

If there is a clear future direction for the company PLEASE share it with the team

Pros

Work is fun and challenging. People are very positive and outgoing. Offices are very modern. I see a bright future for airG.

Cons

Can’t think of any cons.

Pros

* Interesting international projects * AWESOME new office, really clean and beautiful view and facility (Amazing bathrooms) * Lots of challenging projects

Cons

* Many times projects run late, resulting in last minute dash to get things done * Sometimes the office culture feels like an engineering lab / university student lounge and not a professional company

Advice to Management

Hire a few more 'suits' to be more professional/mature

Pros

The best part about airG is the the culture and the team. HR & hiring managers do a superb job at finding the right people that fit well within the friendly and fun-to-be-around environment to join airG. Other pros: - flex start time - free breakfast daily - beer Fridays weekly - team lunch outings monthly - weekday company social events (yes, get paid to play) - standing desks - herman miller chairs - catered lunch & learns - kids friendly family fun events I feel management & HR go the extra mile to take care of the employees.

Cons

- Office can get almost too quiet at times - Hard to get to know people from other teams as some teams really keep to themselves

Advice to Management

Thank you for fostering an amazing culture, I'm loving my time here for all the reasons stated above (and many other reasons not mentioned). Keep up the great work! One thing that would be great to add is more regular updates on big picture and company direction/future.

Pros

- friendly and small community of people - down to earth atmosphere - fun monthly company events and fundraiser activities - beer and chips on Fridays - free cold breakfast, coffee, and fresh fruit - access to discounted gym membership

Cons

- opportunity to upgrade to another position may not be available - may not always see eye to eye with management - product development may be slow

Pros

* The people are great * The benefits are good * Downtown location is easy to get to (Unless you're driving ... $200/mo parking)

Cons

* Lack of trust in employees * Open plan = endless interruptions * The pay isn't great, but given the products, I suspect not much money is being made * Obsolete/ignored/inconsequential products * Poor project planning * Micromanagement

Advice to Management

Have a vision and plan ahead. Work around barriers and adjust your vision accordingly. Your employees know their stuff ... let them shine instead of micro-managing projects.

Pros

Some teams are friendly. Lots of company events

Cons

Depending on which team you are in. If you happen to be in the Integrations team, good luck to you. This is a team where everything is thrown onto you but you are never appreciated. The lead has no idea what is happening and only loves to chat with management. If you are one who loves to talk and butter up to your seniors and superiors, then you will do well in this organization. All the talk of work life balance only happens if you do a good job at buttering up.

Advice to Management

The reason why people leave is the lack of appreciation and people do not like to hear advise from others.

Pros

Great company to work for with a great culture - work hard play hard mentality. Worked with a great team and learned a lot with the company.

Cons

To be honest, can't really think of a con working with AirG as I had a positive experience all around. Was a great place to work as one of my first jobs out of schoo.
