Vantaggi
-Business is booming! Anglepoint has a strong marketing and sales team, a great pipeline of revenue, and a pretty great management team. Covid has simply made the firm stronger. -solid first job for those directly out of undergrad- good amount of responsibility and decent pay without the same level of red tape and politics at a larger firm. -good benefits -for the most part, supervisors are fair and supportive. Flexibility is strongly valued, and allows people to have a pretty good work-life balance. -company is still fairly transparent and does not micromanage how work gets done, although both of these qualities are on the decline- so watch for how leadership addresses these things.
Svantaggi
-It is hard to rise within the firm. There is no transparent or objective promotion/raise policy - a lot of it seems like favoritism. There is work being done to remedy this, but many people have left over this (lots of responsibility/accountability increase with no/little pay increase or clarity on advancement). -related is that (IMO) those who make promotion and raise decisions have very little visibility into the impact individual contributors provide- so this policy makes advancement a subjective affair. -it is a hard task to match the work coming in with the experienced staff who are able to complete it. The experienced staff also have to create processes where none exist, and train new people, all while delivering world class solutions. Anglepoint is struggling in these sometimes competing objectives.
