Pros

This was my first real job after graduating from college and I have grown so much by working closely with the people here. I have been given more responsibility than I could have imagined for a first year member at any job. Since it is a small company, the support given by the people here is amazing. I have weekly meetings with my team's director in order to make sure I am on the right track. My team constantly supports me and encourages me to take on new challenges that align with my professional goals. This ensures that I am constantly expanding my own skill set while helping the company grow. I also have really loved getting to work so closely with our technical teams. I have had a lot of exposure to the functionalities of every team in the company, which has helped me to expand my knowledge of the technology. I especially feel supported by the CEO. During my first week at the company I attended meetings with her, two months in I had a personal touch base with her to gage my growth and happiness level, and seven months later she took my team to an early morning work out class! Working so closely with her has helped me develop my strategic, entrepreneurial, and technical skills tremendously.

Cons

Like any start up environment, the hours can sometimes be long. However, our company often has really awesome events to keep us going. Sometimes we’ll order in pizza if we’re staying at the office late though which makes it ok☺

Our entire management team is focused on this exact same goal. We are having great success in revamping many of our teams attracting A+ talent. We have recently introduced key new hires on the Data and Engineering teams. We are on a mission to do the same across other teams.

Pros

I am very appreciative of my time at JOOR. Working at JOOR over the course of the last 4 years has been a really rewarding experience. Leadership is approachable and open to feedback, and they’ve created an environment where people feel valued. I’ve had plenty of opportunities to grow professionally, whether through mentorship, new responsibilities, or just being encouraged to bring ideas to the table. The company also does a great job of maintaining work-life balance. Thanks again for 4 amazing years.

Cons

No place is perfect, but most of the challenges here are normal growing pains or things leadership is actively working to improve.
