Pros
I joined NationBuilder as it was going through a tough time. However, it has been both humbling and exciting to see the company get back on its feets and focus on the road ahead. I have never worked with such a dedicated, strong and clever group of people in all of my career. For the first time in a long time I can see myself working for a long time at NationBuilder; partly because of the group of people I work with daily but also because there is so much potential and so much to be done. NationBuilder is one of those places where there is never a lack of work to go around. Some of the greatest pros: - Extremely clever and dedicated people; - A company with strong values and a clear mission (that the whole company believes in); - Lots of room for taking ownership, leading and growing; - Lots of exciting work; - Fascinating customers with very diverse problems; - Lots of room for market expansion in Europe and elsewhere; - NationBuilder doesn't have any real competitors and the company is doing something very new and different which is exciting; - The company cares about its employees and understands that everyone has different needs (and works hard at ensuring everyone is looked after); - Lots of hard work but there is also a great work/life balance.
Cons
I honestly don't have many cons. NationBuilder is one of those places where if you feel strongly about something and you don't feel like something is working, you can step-up, offer alternatives and potential change the way things are done (if the solutions are indeed better). As a result most of the cons I can think of are no longer cons. One of the cons I can think about: - As with all startups, you need to be flexible as things change often and fast. Things as NationBuilder do indeed change often and fast.
