Pros

Plenty of creative freedom, nice people, autonomous atmosphere allows plenty of learning if you are a self-starter and are ready to teach yourself and work on your own.

Cons

Very low office morale, non-existent office culture, incompetent and deceptive management, minimal positive reinforcement or acknowledgment for accomplishments, inadequate resources, no benefits, management woos you with stock options and have a delusional valuation of the company, poor communication between departments making it incredibly difficult to accomplish tasks, fails to compete with the vastly superior competition - would not recommend hitching your wagon to this horse!

Itemize Response

This is the place for self-starters! This review is not correct. Itemize offers the following benefits: - Generous PTO (20 day minimum, and grows, with carry over) - 9 Holidays - Health, Vision, Dental - short term disability - transportation - HealthAdvocate healthcare Support Options in the company are important to the company and an important gauge of an employees willingness to see Itemize through to success. We are only looking for people who value the notion of the option, the notion that they can greatly accelerate the value of their compensation by putting themselves all in - or as you say - hitching to this horse. If you are hitched, and this horse wins, all of us who are here will win, too.

Pros

Itemize allows a lot more flexibility and benefits than most start-ups offer. Between the generous amount of PTO and the ability to work remote when necessary, Itemize is a great company from a benefits standpoint. The CEO and Management have immense vision, and that is to become the Google of Payment Documents. With its focus on middle market business, API clients and financial institutions, Itemize is well on its way to achieving its vision. As far as anyone being disrespectful, my experience has been that everyone is in management is open to suggestions on improvement and criticism - as long as it's constructive. The management is very passionate about the work Itemize is doing and that comes off each and every day.

Cons

No real cons. It's hard work, but that's how start-up life is, be prepared to work hard and keep up, this company isn't looking for anything but A Players.
