Vantaggi
- The culture here is incredible. They have practical values they take very seriously, and they clearly gave them a lot of thought. - People are always eager to help each other out. There's a lot of camaraderie here. - They really try to help people strike a good work/life balance, even with them being a consulting company. You're encouraged to only work your working hours, and unplug afterwards. - People here are really smart, and they know their stuff. You won't be the smartest person in the room. - Getting help from those smart people is easy. You're encouraged to reach out when you're stuck, and there's a weekly internal office hours set up for people to get help with challenges. - You will have loads of opportunities to learn and grow. - They've given a lot of thought to how they work. There's standards in place for how you work in Slack, schedule meetings, manage communications, use AI, and so on. I've learned a lot from how they do things. - They've built their incentive structures to account for people taking PTO. They want you to be able to take the time without fear of losing money. - Leaders here genuinely care about you growing and being successful, and your work experience being one that works for you. - People here have a sense of humor, and while they take the work they do very seriously, they don't take themselves too seriously. This is a beautiful combination. - This is a company that learns. You can look through some of the old Glassdoor reviews here and correlate them to historical company initiatives that clearly were designed to address some of the issues described. They want to be a truly excellent company. - Some of the more burdensome aspects of consulting, like travel and time tracking, they manage in a way that's very human and doesn't ask too much of you.
Svantaggi
- Other people have mentioned feeling a bit like they were thrown in the deep end, and that's accurate. I don't know it's a totally avoidable problem given the nature of the consulting they do, but if you're thinking of working here be prepared to drown for a time while you figure things out. - The company prides itself on having done RevOps consulting for a while, being the "OG" RevOps consulting firm. However, they've done a really poor job institutionalizing their knowledge. You will often be reinventing a wheel someone else has built before because they don't have the assets/knowledge put anywhere. They have a Notion instance that's clearly meant to be this, but it's very half-baked. - A lot of the general consulting cons apply here: feeling like you're always performing for clients, stakes always feel high, even if your manager is awesome doesn't mean your client is, and so on. These aren't Go Nimbly specific problems, and like I've said elsewhere they manage it as well as you could hope. It can still suck though, so just make sure you're aware of what you're signing up for.
