Pros
I've had a great experience working on the Account Executive and Account Management team here at Localwise. Product: There are consistent improvements and additions on the Localwise site that come at a rapid pace, and it makes the sales side very exciting. We're able to regularly bring good news regarding product updates to our clients whenever we speak with them, and most find the site very easy to use. Helping the site transform from a basic job posting board to a social network has been one of the most satisfying parts of this job. Job seekers and employers are communicative with their feedback, and I typically feel like they consider Localwise to be a partner, rather than a vendor. Team: The non-technical team is tightly knit, and the work atmosphere and culture is collaborative and team-oriented. I've found that everyone here is competitive, but in a way that tends to breed personal growth. The technical team is first-rate, and are communicative and responsive to the non-tech team. This is very different than my previous experience with dev teams. Leadership: CEO and leadership team will take the time to hear you out and take your feedback, while giving theirs in a constructive way. It always feels like we're building something meaningful. They focus a good amount on mission and big-picture in our group, so you won't forget why you're here.
Cons
Like any startup, you need to wear a lot of hats, so it's not a perfect fit for everyone.
