Vantaggi
I really enjoy the privately-owned, smaller company feel of Experitec. My previous employer was a very large company where I felt like I was “just a number.” At Experitec, my contributions are known and visible by everyone including the President, Larry Tietjen, from whom I’ve received personal notes of recognition on several occasions. There’s plenty of room for growth even if it’s not moving into a management position. In the four years I’ve been with the company, I’ve significantly expanded my role and responsibilities, which twice has resulted in a title change and promotion. Besides professional growth and support, Experitec truly cares about employee wellbeing. I recently lost an immediate family member and my manager and everyone at Experitec supported me in every way they could from giving me the time off I needed, attending the funeral and through numerous employees sending their condolences and even sending donations to the charity of my family’s choice. Of course, there are tough days too and not everything is perfect, but I can confidently say there’s no place I’d rather be than Experitec.
Svantaggi
Because Experitec is a smaller company, one thing that can be challenging at times is having to wear multiple hats. You may find yourself doing tasks and activities that would be traditionally outside of your job description. However, I think this also allows for growth opportunities and results in being challenged instead of becoming stagnant in your role.
