Pros

My experience with OwnBackup has been amazing. It truly was a career move that I don't regret. Sometimes start-ups are risky, but this is not your ordinary startup. I felt right at home from the start with OwnBackup. The training was structured and very helpful. Being a Salesforce Gold ISV partner was a huge bonus. I love that the company isn't afraid to invest in anything that it sees as valuable and worthwhile (i.e. Dreamforce, User Groups, Marketing, etc). The rapidly growing R&D / Dev dept is one of the most innovative & agile I have seen. They actually listen to the customer base and make enhancements to the product quickly based off of those suggestions. This is critical in the face-paced technology world. The marketing team is world class and in no time has already helped establish us a THE premier Appexchange partner of Salesforce. Name recognition is priceless. Sr Leadership knows what they are doing and has a plan in place to get us to the top, FAST. It's always nice to trust the decisions that are being made for the future of the company. They have led start ups through this growth cycle before. We keep adding more and more experienced individuals to the team to help build upon our success. The theme you have heard is "don't just get people in the seats, get the RIGHT people"! The office is a very fun environment, where something is always going on. One great perk is that they bring in lunch every Friday. Not only is that nice to have food, but it's also cool to get to know your peers better during this time. Some of the fun things we have done are celebrating B-Days/Anniversaries, Halloween costume & Ugly sweater contests along with a company-wide fun day at Six Flags! We also have top notch Kick Off's & Mid-Year Meetings, where no expense is spared. Overall I am grateful for the growth opportunity that is available at OwnBackup. It's a really great place to work & be part of. It's a "rocket ship" that's headed straight up & I am proud to be on the ground floor of it. I look forward to even more success in the years to come!

Cons

There really aren't many cons that I can think of. One thing I would like to see them add soon is 401K matching.
