exciting growth with intelligent, engaged, dedicated people
Pros
great teamwork. the real, visible prospects of growth mean that we (i) are (am) motivated to give it my all at glassdoor. i am inspired to perform well, feel that my efforts are respected, appreciated, and noticed, and i would like to spend a significant chunk of my career here. (or at least the next few years!) the growth opportunities also means that the types of politics that are present in any work / office environment are not present here. what i mean is, sometimes in a place where morale is low, or opportunities are limited, you can see people turn on one another to get ahead, or simply to survive. at glassdoor, that is not an issue, and so we can turn our efforts towards helping one another, growing together, and excelling together.
Cons
tight space as we wait for our new building to be completed. building permitting issues are slowing us down, and it makes for a little bit of stress. also, this selling point for new hires is a bit farther away than it should be... i hear this should have happened in december 2013 of january 2014. its now mid march 2014, and i think we are looking at early summer? not the fault of glassdoor management, perhaps, but once we do relocate (a few miles north), i see the morale (already high) jumping to all new levels of high.
