Acquired by Komodo Health

Pros

I don't know what pluses there will be in a few months. We are being acquired by Komodo Health. They have told us that there will be no immediate changes but we will be assimilated and I don't know what will happen. Unlimited PTO. Trust is put in you to get your job done. If you do that, take all the time off you need. Flexible working. How you get your job done is up to you as long as it doesn't affect the team. A lot of people taking time off for COVID have been able to take the time off they needed to care for their families. No performance reviews. You are expected to do your job and leadership has a good sense of how you are doing. Utilisation bonuses. Utilisation targets are lower than at other consulting companies, and if you make your hours, you receive a share of your billing hours. You get your birthday off. Informal culture. It's okay to post memes on chat. People have a laugh on company calls and put silly pictures in internal presentations. MacBooks. This is a pro or a con depending on whether you like Macs.

Cons

Mavens was started as a company that the founders, Billy and PK, wanted to work at. Things were perhaps chaotic at times, but Mavens never lost sight of its Employees First value. This past year has been one of rapid change and growth. The company hired a lot of people, practices have been restructured, and things still feel chaotic. However with the rapid growth, things don't feel as 'flat' as they were before. Things are more structured. Comp changed this year and some pay incentives were removed. I feel that employees like me have been stretched and asked to do some crazy things in my projects because Mavens primary goal has been expansion. There's been a lot of 'we don't normally do things this way' work. Now, we learned today that we are being acquired. I can barely keep up with the changes we have been going through this year, and to be acquired just feels like an added burden. It feels that this decision was not done for the good of the employees but to keep the company expanding. I have never felt more like a pawn than I do right now.

Pros

Great coworkers and great clients. We focus on doing the right things for the right reasons. Challenging work Build lots of different skillsets Flexibility to grow in a direction that you choose Constantly trying to improve how we do things - how we work as a company, how we deliver projects for our customers, how we function as individuals. Flat hierarchy - no one has (or is) a manager

Cons

Mavens does not have a structured career path. Your career growth at Mavens is based on professional skill/ability growth and the opportunity to increase your responsibilities rather than titles and positions.
