Pros

WFH policy and flexible schedules really make this company a great place to work. Everyone is friendly, usually willing to help when in need. Lots to learn. The ability to move up is there if you prove yourself.

Cons

Pay is lower then other companies, though the flexibility and WFH aspects make up for that in my mind. How good of a fit the company is for you could really depend on what team and manager you have. I lucked out with my team placement, but I have heard other teams are not as good to work on.

Pros

Remote work and flexibility Size of company is great - not too big, not too small Great coworkers (aside from the leadership)

Cons

- Horrible psychological work environment. The senior leaders in my department were absolutely terrifying and incredibly nitpicky, rather than encouraging and supportive to their people. - Career growth is a joke at Workiva, and leaders make it clear by their actions (and at times, words) that it's not a priority. I remember sitting on a department call where my VP said, "Growth is not getting a promotion at Workiva," and the context in which she said it made it feel cold, patronizing, and disheartening. Departmental calls were often uncomfortable and totally deflating. - Extremely unrealistic and very subjective standards - No manager accountability - People constantly live in fear, but the work flexibility and "great place to work" facade keep employees stuck in a toxic loop - When they get the slightest whiff of unhappiness, they push you out. I've seen it time and time again (which then creates a toxic fear culture) - Constant gaslighting
