Pros

Casual dress (also a con) gave it 3 stars instead of 1 because it was a great place to work for a long while. Coworkers are fun and intelligent. They do hire the best as far as skillset

Cons

Beware the company is a clique and if you do not "fit" they will find a reason to eliminate you. I've seen it happen to a lot of good people. Also, Management is intent on getting younger, hipper staff and it shows in treatment. The "no management" they tout is a facade and if you work there you will see it. They say they are flexible but frown on remote working now that they have instilled their version of "Agile". The CEO is disengaged with side projects.

Geonetric Response

Thank you for the honest and candid feedback. It's true we do hire the best, and I'd like to think we're pretty hip! That said, the average age is 37, a bit younger than the median in Iowa (38 I believe), but probably in-line with digital/tech-heavy companies. It's also true that I've personally been very involved with Iowa Startup Accelerator, but that's very much coming full circle in developing new products for Geonetric, and teaching us new skills about how to successfully create new products and services. So, I don't really see it as a side project, more an investment in the future of the company. Sorry to hear you didn't like the environment here. I'd certainly never say it's the right fit for everyone. Best of luck in your future endeavors, Eric
