Pros

-Flexible work hours -Remote -Compelling product -Strong leadership -Great culture I have been at Sourceress for over a year and I cannot say praise the leadership and my colleagues enough for making this an excellent place to work! I have made strong friendships here and while yes, there can be pressure at times because it IS a start-up after all, the overall attitude here is friendly and fun! That is not to say that poor work is tolerated, one of the reasons I love it here is because everyone is smart, dedicated, and passionate about what the company is trying to do. If you're not the type of person who is always trying to improve and make an impact, it might not be for you. But if you're someone who thrives when given ownership and accountability knowing that it's OK to fail as long as you get back up, then you will love it here! I read a previous review that said management was "closed off" and "non-responsive." I've found that to be the exact opposite of my experience. Leadership is available and actively responds to messages, concerns, etc. Plus we often do "AMA" with leaders as another way to ask questions and voice thoughts.

Cons

Nothing I can think of.

Pros

Flexibility, remote work, and ability to pick up more hours when work is available.

Cons

- The work is not always consistent. You might find yourself struggling to reach 10 hours of work per week, even though 30+ hours was promised, due to an inability to account for scheduled vacations and absences. - No benefits of any sort. - Pay structure is convoluted, and you're never really sure how much you're going to make on each paycheck. - Onboarding is a complete joke. You're thrown into the waters with an onboarding checklist, which your leads and managers aren't really paying attention to. No scheduled video calls, no weekly check-ins, just a paper doc with a checklist for you to sort through. To be fair to coven leads, they're often much too busy to actually spend time developing a relationship with new hires. Does it really need to be said how valuable face-time is when working remotely, especially for new employees? - Company culture is pretty much nonexistent. Birthdays are acknowledged via Slack, but that's the most I've seen this company do for its employees. You'll be so disconnected from your employees and managers, to the point where you feel like the only platform to air your grievances is Glassdoor.
