An aging startup punching above its weight - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Get Satisfaction

The company has been around since 2007 but has recently repositioned itself in the market. With a great product, the company has a great outlook in a competitive and emerging space. Company is validated in the space with a customer list of emerging SaaS/High Tech and fortune 200 companies such as Procter & Gamble, Kellogg's, and Target. Amazing vision carried by everybody in the company starting with the CEO. Great place to learn and work directly with the CEO and other C-Level Executives. Open transparency which has attributed to having everybody on board with the vision. Amazing talent all around, it's great to work with smart people who you can constantly learn from on a day to day. Huge opportunity for growth and great place to establish your young career. Amazing office culture; everybody has a work hard/play hard mentality. Fully stocked kitchen with a kegerator and stocked bar. Monthly company wide hack days and company outings. Full benefits across the board and good amount of PTO. It's a place where you don't count your hours because they don't count your hours and they understand that you have a life outside of work. Wages are also very competitive especially considering how expensive the Bay Area is getting.

Because the company is still relatively young, it may not have your tradition corporate procedures which not necessarily be a bad thing. But on-boarding can be smoother, it may take a bit longer than they'd like to be to get new hires fully onboarded.

Get Satisfaction continues to manage to hire really smart, motivated people that are great to work with. There aren't very many office politics, and things are pretty transparent all around. People love to help each other out and that's been a constant part of the company culture throughout my tenure here. As a small company, the world is your oyster and if you have an idea you want to implement, you can go ahead and do that. You can work well outside the bounds of your described job if that pleases you, and there are plenty of examples of employees who have transitioned into various roles to get different experiences, contribute in different ways, and grow their careers.

Doesn't have all the standard "startup perks" like free lunches and fancy schwag etc. that many other Silicon Valley startups use to lure talent. Nice enough office, but not anything to write home about, so you don't get that extra sense of pride and optimism from the space.
