Pros
In my first 8-9 months here, I doubted I'd stay very long. Things were a little chaotic and messy at the time, to say the least, and the people on my team (myself included) did not feel listened to or heard. Overall morale was very low.
Since then, there's been a lot of changes -- some good, some bad, as you'd expect, but probably 90% good. The leadership team looks different now, the delivery team looks different now, our processes and way of working look different now, and overall work/life balance has improved. At the time of writing this, I have no desire to leave and truly enjoy my job, my co-workers, the work we do, and the agency as a whole.
- My manager actively listens and communicates with me regularly, and I know they're genuinely interested in helping me grow in my career.
- Like I said, good work/life balance. Expectations around WFH are very casual, and no one is micromanaging you as long as your work gets done.
- Fully WFH agency -- no FOMO of some people being in-office and some people being WFH. And I think the way we've adjusted for WFH works really well to keep us all connected and in communication with each other.
- Fair pay, plus twice yearly profit sharing.
- Great health care benefits. Like, really good!
- Pretty fair PTO policy.
- Yearly holiday party in Denver (get to see everyone in person!).
- Diverse company with a ton of friendly people who are great to work with.
Cons
- Would love sick days included in PTO policy.
- Attitude around resourcing tends to be kinda dismissive in regards to asking people to work more than 40 hours, which wouldn't really be an issue if we were paid OT (or some other benefit).
