Pros

- memes - flexible hours - amazing team to work with, very supportive and friendly - interview process was great from the start. Quite thorough and they were patient with me - You get to learn a lot and you work with some wonderful people

Cons

- some of the work is a bit repetitive (not a con for me personally though, I tend to enjoy it a bit more that way)

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about us on Glassdoor! Job seekers regularly visit our profile here to try and get a better understanding of what it's like to work for us, so your feedback is very valuable. I love everything you've mentioned under 'Pros', as this really speaks to the culture we have and want to sustain as our company grows. Positivity, flexibility, and openness are our core values and support for those starts at the top. Your point about repetitiveness is noted. In the past, our flexibility has allowed team members seeking job enlargement to do so without putting pressure on those who wish to remain specialists to venture outside their comfort zone. As we work to further define the roles within our teams, we can do more to encourage professional growth for those who feel the same way and are wanting more. If you want to discuss anything any further, or have advice for management in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out. I am always glad to meet and continue the conversation. -- Brendan
