Pros

I loved working here because of the autonomy. Initially, there was great sense of team, where everyone did everything competently and helped out wherever help was needed. The lax approach to managing serious business afforded lots of on the job learning and the group supported our learning processes.

Cons

The CEO checked out and no longer cared about the day-to-day operations. It used to be a team, wit him at the head. When he stopped caring, there was no one to fill in and act as a leader of the company. 80% of the top staff that I worked with has left in the last year.

Pros

Leadership cares about people and have created a work hard, play hard environment. They strive for work-life balance for all of us and are flexible around schedules. I also appreciate our Townhalls and the level of transparency that is rare in a lot of companies.

Cons

It is not for everyone but I appreciate the fast paced, entrepreneurial environment.

Pros

I love working here and feel like I've finally found my home work-wise. Forum offers you the ability to have your voice and ideas heard and has a fun, collaborative culture where people really care about one another. It's a fast-paced place, so you've got to thrive in that kind of environment to thrive here - which I personally like. The firm is always looking for new opportunities and ways to stay ahead of the curve, which is something I value.

Cons

We're an entrepreneurial firm, which means we go where the opportunity is. Some people see this as lack of focus. Rather, I see it as being innovative and not beholden to doing things the way they've always been done "just because." We believe strongly in solid cultural fits, which has meant some turnover over the years. But the positive side of that is we have people who believe in and live our values and "stick".
