Pros
Working at AnswersMedia was one of the most challenging events in my career. It’s also been THE most rewarding experience too. In the time I worked, I have learned and grown more than I ever thought possible. Yes it’s fast pace like any start up is, but if you are talented and motivated, you will have unlimited number of opportunities to grow, expand you knowledge and have fun doing it. For instance, I have been promoted twice in 20 months, which I don't believe would have been even possible at any other company. My managers have always been incredibly supportive of my career but also to me as a person which is very rare these days. It’s true that the company has been through many leadership changes over the years which inevitably caused employees frustration and rant. With yet another big change last fall, the company seems to be heading in the right direction with its full transparency and profit sharing model. Like I said, the possibilities are limitless. The bottom line is that it’s not the place for people who just want to skate by. This is a highly dynamic environment that is only suited for passionate people with that inner burning desire to succeed. Innovative products that this company offers would require no less.
Cons
Training and onboarding process could be a little smoother, new hires are expected to hit the ground running and supervisors don’t always have time to adequately prepare and train new employees against such a steep learning curve
