Pros

- Company is growing and continuing to make an impact on the chemical industry - Company provides regular communication with bi-weekly All Hands and weekly letters from the CEO, which ensures strategic alignment across departments. - Great environment for people who are self-starters, the company encourages new ideas and experimentation and puts emphasis on constant learning and iterating as needed - Tight-knit culture, where employees at all levels are willing to roll up their sleeves and put in the work - A community of kind and caring individuals, who are driven by the company’s mission

Cons

- Like any growing tech startup, solving complex problems can demand a lot of your time and energy. Company is great for Individuals who thrive in fast-paced environments and are not afraid of “building the plane as you fly” but if you are looking for a more structured environment where everything has been figured out, it may not be a fit for you.

Pros

Cons

Depending on your personality, earlier-stage companies can require more flexibility and the wearing of multiple hats. I enjoy it so this is a nice fit for me.

Pros

- Great company culture and people - Impactful work: There's a strong sense of achievement as the work we do is meaningful and contributes to the company's success. - Being part of the company right now is exhilarating due to its huge growth potential - Managers genuinely care about employees' well-being and are continually looking to improve processes. - The relatively few set processes allow employees to contribute ideas and help shape the company's culture and procedures.

Cons

With fewer processes, there can be ambiguity in roles and expectations, requiring individuals to take more initiative and responsibility. May not be ideal for those seeking a structured setting where tasks are clearly outlined without the need for much independent thought or decision-making.

Engineer at Novi

Pros

I love working at Novi and feel valued as an employee and person. I really appreciate having the autonomy and trust from management to make the decisions that I think are best. I get to work on complex problems that I know will provide value to our users and have an impact on what we’re doing. Our engineering leader has recently joined and is working really hard to help us build our culture and values as a team, and it’s great to be able to have a say in how we’re moving forward. We work hard and things move quickly, but I think we also really care about taking care of each other and making sure we’re all at our best.

Cons

It’s a startup, things move quickly and change often.

Pros

Amazing people, doing amazing things. If you want to join a company with a wicked smart female founder and phenomenal culture (across all teams and the company) send Novi a note. - Customers LOVE the product - Company is fundamentally changing how companies build sustainable products and source compliant materials - Leadership is genuinely incredible. The CEO empowers the team to make decisions, take on significant projects, and drive. In return, the CEO demands accountability, expects the team to show up, and help move the company forward -- truly a team effort. - This is a startup. If you don't want to solve super tough problems with minimal support or you want a six week onboarding process followed by a six week L&D course, this (or any startup) is not the place for you. Novi is looking for people who can come in and make an impact. Who want to change how an industry fundamentally operates. The CEO pours her soul into the company, both the people and the product because she believes (knows) this is the future of how the chemical industry will operate in the (very near) future.

Cons

Lots going on with tons of opportunity causing folks to wear multiple hats -- should be solved as the company continues to scale.
