Business Outlook

Pros

The people are really exceptional. People care about their work and collaborate well. The philosophies that were noted on my way in the door have proven to be how the company operates. It’s not lip service.

Cons

The structure can be challenging at times. People self organize and jump to help with different things, making it a bit puzzling at times to find your way. Everyone understands this, helps with navigation and it gets better over time as you learn the ropes. The flexibility of the structure ends up being an advantage in many cases.
