Pros

Culture was good the last half of 2017 but took a nose dive and tanked.

Cons

Company operates with old school work mentality expecting you to be in the office every day. The President is the biggest road block with his ego and micro managing everyone at all levels and feels he is the smartest guy in every room and every meeting. What talented people they had have left. Not a great company for someone looking to grow and learn to advance their careers. If you are looking for a 9-5 job and a pay cheque then this company suits you.

Thank you for providing feedback. I’m sorry it didn’t work out and appreciate the opportunity to reflect on how we can be better. Our intent is to provide a happy and healthy office environment that sets everyone up for success. As a small company looking to do great things - to help people invest their savings - our recent growth has been the result of giving people more responsibility and fostering a culture of divide and conquer. I’m proud about the many talented and hard working team members who are succeeding at our company and am really excited about their continued professional growth and impact as we continue to scale the business. Thanks again for your time.

Pros

- Successful and growing. Unlike other start-ups I'm never worried about losing my job as long as I continue to provide value to the company. The founders have a strong and infectious vision for the company. - Everybody is really friendly and nice. - It's a clock-in-clock-out attitude. I don't feel like I have to be on-call at all times and I can work the hours I want (within reason). - They're extremely organized and work hard on efficiency. - If you're a go-getter who is young, flexible, and adapts well or if you like to put your head down and work really hard all day this is a great place for you. Resourcefulness is one of their core values and that's probably the most valuable skill you can have at this company in my opinion. That means getting to work alongside a bunch of other resourceful people which is great.

Cons

The company is growing too fast for its own good and as a result has a tendency to undervalue its culture/employees by accident. I don't think this is because the people in charge hate their employees or don't care it's just that their focus is so much on their vision for the company that they forget to live in the present and nurture a culture where everybody feels valued and fulfilled. That said- this is typical for a start up. I knew what I was getting into when I signed up and I'm a little shocked that there are people who expected something different.
