Pros
Joining the team about HHAeXchange is one of the best career moves I’ve ever made. When I decided to make my next career move, I had 3 different offers, including one from a well-known tech “unicorn”, but I chose HHAeXchange as I felt it presented the opportunity to help build something truly special. 5 months in, I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Since I’ve been here, we have continued to expand into new markets, meaning more growth for the team and new challenges for everyone at the company. In my role in Sales Operations I’ve been tasked with laying the foundation for this explosive growth. As part of this, I have gained invaluable experience and the chance to build a Sales Operations organization from scratch, while having the benefits of working for an already successful and secure company. Most importantly, the team is first class and is led by a superstar VP who truly does everything he can to enable the success of both the team at large and each individual. Like any rapidly scaling organization, there is plenty of work to go around, but the culture is results-oriented and focused on achievements as opposed to micromanagement. The commute to Long Island City made me nervous at first, but my door to door commute from Hudson County, NJ is the same as when I worked in the Flatiron District.
Cons
There are the usual growing pains and day to day headaches associated with any rapidly expanding organization, but nothing out of the ordinary.
