Vantaggi

- Laid back company culture. Tshirt and jeans is typical dress, frequent company happy hours and events, very young vibe (most people between 22 - 32) - Small startup on its way to the top. The product is great and fits a need in the market, and the leadership is learning how to grow a company sustainably. - Significant room to grow. This company is going to get very big very fast, and you will find yourself in an influential role very quickly. - Everyone is incredibly fun and friendly.

Svantaggi

- Work life balance can be difficult to achieve. The pace of work can be exhausting. - Growing pains of changing from a very small startup to a midsize company are beginning to happen - how do we promote internally, how do we handle HR, what are the processes we need to handle things we didn't have to worry about before, etc. - Compensation is competitive, but not outstanding. This may improve as they grow, however.

Thanks for all the kind words and your honesty! Agree - this is a company where we hire people who want a challenge and are up for it. We don't hide that we push people hard (while not requiring long hours) and expect them to in turn expect the best out of their beers. There will of course be internal processes that get formed as this company matures - but only if you, dear coworker, tell us what we need to improve on. And re: pay - we have a clear and transparent process by which we determine your salary and make sure you are being paid above market for your role (and that's not including equity). Hit me up if you want to learn more!

Vantaggi

The team is simply amazing: smart, fun, caring, and willing to go above and beyond to help out. It's clear the founders have tried really hard to bring on only the best people that not only will do great work, but will also fit well with our unique/funky/quirky culture. I feel like I have a lot of flexibility in my role to focus on what's most important; I'm not micromanaged, and I've had the ability to take on more and more responsibility as the company has grown. We're super transparent as well. I can talk to anyone in the company -- including the CEO -- about anything that's on my mind, and no question is off limits (for ex, everyone knows how much cash is in the bank and the founders regularly report on our fundraising efforts and revenue growth metrics). I've worked in a big company and small startups, and Contactually is the best hands-down.

Svantaggi

The company is growing fast and we've had our share of issues. We try so many new things that it often feels like there's always something broken or a process that's not quite right, and it can be frustrating. But I think that's normal.

Thanks for your comment, and appreciate the kind words about me! Yes, as we've scaled we have had our fair share of issues. Part of the reason why we're bringing on more senior advisors, investors, etc is that they bring with them enough experience and scar tissue that we can predict what's coming down the pike.
