Pros
Par8o is filled with hardworking and smart people who are easy to work with and management is very accessible. There are many opportunities for meaningful work and for influencing important decisions. The company respects your need for flexibility as long as you get your job done, which is a huge pro! Some days that means it's 9-5, other days it may mean longer hours or signing on later to finish a priority project. Performance is not measured by "face time" and good work is regularly recognized by senior management and the CEO. The furry/wet-nosed colleagues (it's a dog-friendly office) also make for a fun-hearted environment! Overall I've had a great experience at Par8o.
Cons
It's a small company with very stable management (a good thing!) so the opportunities to build out your own team or advance within the company may be a little more limited than at a larger organization. Some of the flexible benefit policies can also be a little tough to culturally understand for a new hire (unlimited vacation can sometimes feel limiting) who comes from a larger organization. As long as you're clear about what you're looking for in a company, are a self-starter, and willing to "roll up your sleeves"-- this is a company you can do well. No cons overwhelm the pros.

Pros
Everyone is really dedicated to what they are doing. For the most part everyone is super driven by what they do and work really hard. Laid back atmosphere and dog friendly.
Cons
Much of what we are doing is being done for the first time in healthcare. There is a lot of hard work that goes into every project that you probably wouldn't see working in other industries.
