Pros

• Lots of room to grow if you want to learn • Interesting clients and subject matters • Freedom to work at your own pace and with little supervision • Lots of opportunity to implement changes and express yourself

Cons

• Toxic workplace at because of obstinate colleagues and incompetent sales agents • Owner is mysoginistic, racist, long-winded, emotional, and holds outdated views on how to run a business • There's very little structure or documentation, leading to employees being islands of knowledge • Everyone is either overworked or underworked; no one's time is properly accounted for capacity • Company culture is equivalent to a boys' locker room • There is zero accountability, oversight or retrospective on anything employees do • No one wants to take ownership of anything of fear of being the reason for issues • All business is tied to a single major client who repeatedly takes advantage of their position • Established processes, contracts and agreements are ignored as soon as client complains • There are no consequences to actions if you're a 'good guy' • Owner had everyone come back to the office during Stage 2 despite everyone being able to work from home

Pros

Clear Com has helped me extend my scope of knowledge massively through the couple of years I've worked there. I've been repeatedly given the opportunity to learn new skill sets and expand my knowledge of what I already knew. There is a lot of freedom given when it comes to approaching new projects which can lead to huge growth. A great thing about expanding your knowledge is management will see that through their regular review process and follows through with their statement of "the more you're capable of the more you'll earn". When I first heard that I assumed it was just smoke, but it wasn't. When it comes to development, it truly feels like working as a team. Problems or plans are discussed as a team with everyone contributing their opinion. Lastly, I do want to say that Clear Com Media has some of the best web designers I have ever seen. I'm constantly blown away by their work and it feels great to implement their designs.

Cons

It is a small development team, meaning if you're stuck on something that's new to the team, you might not have someone who just knows the answer through experience ( although that is still often the case ). The upside to this is the team has no problem sitting with you to figure it out together. Another big issue is islands of knowledge as other reviews here have stated. The company does acknowledge this and is working hard to combat this issue.
