Pros

Lots of opportunities for lateral moves, fast-paced, Orange culture, innovative, great benefits, global company, great HR team. There's never a stagnant moment--there will always be work to be done, challenges to overcome. Most teams embrace innovation so long as you've proven your ability to follow through and forge a successful path. The company's also growing unbelievably fast, generating tons of opportunities for lateral career moves.

Cons

Slightly unorganized, cross-department communication challenges, hard work-life balance, promotions constantly being given to upper management. Work-life balance can be very hard--not sure if this is the place for someone who only wants to work 8-5, especially within Product and Services. Although they say you're only expected to work 40-hour weeks, the reality is that everyone will be working 45-60, sometimes more during certain times of the year.

Pros

It's easy to sleep at night when you're working with products that deliver on what they are supposed to deliver. The people are talented for the most part as well

Cons

The management doesn't really work very well. Lots of lip service given to "promote from within" even though most positions are filled from outside the company.

Thanks so much for your review! We agree there's always room for growth. One of the ways we're looking to facilitate more #dreamjob experiences is by sharing reviews like yours with executives so that we can identify areas for improvement. Thanks again!

Pros

Fast paced, lots of ambitious smart coworkers, great benefits. Salesforce acquisition has if anything improved career opportunities. Seems as though they are letting us do our own thing and letting Scott Dorsey remain in control of company decisions.

Cons

Midwestern pay but cost of living in Indy is so low that this isn't really a Con. Much more opportunities for salary growth once you prove your worth. No complaints!
