Hey, thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed networking here. We have some great clients! We are proud that we are not like other companies who have had mass layoffs to cut payroll expenses. We have never laid anyone off based on cost cutting, and we don’t ever plan on doing so in the future. When we need to cut expenses, we look for other ways to tighten the belt. Over the years, we have been generous with compensation adjustments. We have never had an across-the-board freeze in raises and there is not one in place now. Whether or not an individual employee receives a raise depends on many factors, and we remain committed to offering competitive compensation.

InterWorks changed my life

Pros

InterWorks is an imperfect but completely sincere meritocracy. I did not know the CEO when I interviewed here. I don’t belong to any fun clubs or socially engage with anyone in the C-suite. I just work very hard and take care of (and care about) my customers and my coworkers. That’s it. Through that, I’ve been able to grow, excel, and be rewarded in ways that frankly feel far-fetched when I look at my previous trajectory. Stumbling into a career at InterWorks has meant the world to me, and my family. I’ve made dear, lifelong friends here both inside and outside the company, learned a thousand new things a year, and grown my comfort zone in ways that have surprised and shaped me in my personal life. InterWorks is the kind of place that you can stay, learn, and thrive. But it’s 100% on you, there are no handouts, shortcuts or cheat codes.

Cons

We got too big. We had a strategic partnership that enticed us to grow in ways that weren’t actually healthy or true to who we want to be, and as that partnership has receded we have gone through a multi-year rightsizing action that finally feels close to over. I’ll note that this hasn’t meant layoffs. Despite what some other reviewers have said about leadership being callous and out of touch, the reality is they are so allergic to upending livelihoods that they’d rather pick other struggles, or turn down lines of business that we can’t pivot to quickly as a result of wanting to keep everyone who continues to choose InterWorks. Depending on who you are and how you view things this could be a pro, but it has made many things harder too.
