Catapult Systems Reviews

Pros

Small company, ample opportunity to have one-on-one interactions with management. Friendly employees and counterparts.

Cons

Having been with Catapult for several years, I noticed a few things - Catapult Austin is the nexus for this company, much as Redmond is for Microsoft. If you don't happen to belong to that office, you don't experience the company in the same manner. From camaraderie to benefits, the focus was still on Austin, even when out-performed by other offices. In the other markets, a lot of the consulting work tended to work...

Advice to Management

During my tenure, I saw talent grow, develop, then leave - while this happens in all companies, the sheer volume of high-end talent leaving was quite alarming. Aside from a few stalwart people who continue with the company regardless, ask (and then truly listen - a real problem from mid-management levels) how you might better engage and more importantly retain talent. My time there, I felt like I was in a holding pattern,...

Pros

I am so grateful to work with this company and their fantastic employees. I work with highly intelligent people who care about me in both a personal and professional capacity. I have learned more working for Catapult than anywhere else. We have fun, work hard and truly care about each other and our clients!

Cons

401k could be better but the executive team has taken steps to improve it

Pros

Flexible, family friendly, management cares about personal success

Cons

Very fast paced environment isn't for everyone

Pros

There are a lot of great things to say about Catapult. But if I boil it all down to what makes me really enjoy my job, and what really makes the company great, its the people I get to work with day in and day out. Simply stellar technical and business talent who believe in giving our clients their very best. It's humbling really, and I am blessed to be a part of such an amazing team.

Cons

For me, I have opinions, ideas, suggestions for improvements, but nothing I would call a "con".

Pros

Managers love communicating with employees which is great.

Cons

Not many that I can think of at the moment.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you’re doing!

Pros

Over the 10 years I have worked here, I have been able to do a variety of jobs and progress nicely in my career. Always lots of opportunity. The people that work here are also very interested in helping each other.

Cons

Not many I can think of.

Pros

Challenging work, good pay, incredibly strong team mentality, managers allow autonomy without letting things go off the rails. Frequent and well-planned team building activities and events, and a culture that's cool enough to not feel corporate, but not so hipster-y that we all need mustache wax and scarves... ;)

Cons

At times you're going to feel like you're alone against a client or a situation, and if you don't force yourself to reach out for help you will be. Oh, and the 401k match is a joke. I guess there has to be one hard negative!

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing, shoot high, and encourage us to follow. Oh, and keep Catapult fun... there's no sense in making money hand-over-fist if you're doing it by selling your soul, and our soul is fun!

Pros

Great culture and benefits

Cons

I have None worth mentioning here
