Vantaggi

Can work from home or remote if you are sick or need a change of scenery for a bit Good co-workers Snacks Some fun events Decent pay for easy work

Svantaggi

Management is terrible. Sexist. Women are often paid 75c to the dollar if not less. They will encourage you to be honest and give honest feedback but if you do, you will get in trouble for being negative or "not a team player." Half of the management team is insecure, the other half is way overconfident. Management loves buzzwords but rarely put anything into action that doesn't directly relate to more money. Management loves to tell you how you should live your life, what you should be focused on to enhance your career, what you should think, who you should talk to. Will hold medical issues against you both as an applicant and employee, particularly if those issues are emotional/mental. They prize aggression. They think it is healthy to fight, argue, be loud, and at times belittle coworkers or their contributions to the company at large and excuse their behaviour under the guise of "good business." Expectation that you kill yourself for the company. If you're not working at all hours of the day you're lazy or, again, "not a team player." Work/Life balance is not respected.

Thank you for your feedback. We want to reiterate again that employee feedback is extremely important to us and is why we hold weekly all-hands meetings and monthly employee one on ones with their managers. We cannot reiterate enough that gender equality is something that we care deeply about and are committed to promoting. We make sure to always treat our employees based on their merits and never gender. At HeyOrca, we work with our employees to accommodate any medical issues that they are facing and try to go above and beyond to makes sure that we do what we can as employers to support our employees. We believe in passionate debates to arrive at the best conclusion as a team, but always remind each other to be objective in our discussions and never personal. We are committed to building an environment where discussions can flow freely and rally behind the mantra of “Debate and Commit”. Have deep thoughtful discussions and commit when a decision has been made. Working in a startup requires tenacity and grit but we also believe in self care. We believe that work life balance lies in good time management and to get things done in the most efficient manner. We strive to support all our employees in their work, in their wellbeing and in their career with HeyOrca" We are thankful to everyone who is and has been on this journey with us. Thank you for your past contributions to the company and your feedback.

Vantaggi

HeyOrca is definitely a spot where no 2 days are the same! If you're looking for a challenge and an opportunity to grow - this is the perfect place for you. Roles & responsibilities are not defined by their job postings and regularly evolve based on the ever-changing needs of the business. HeyOrca is growing fast and so what is required of the team changes quickly, allowing for plenty of learning and professional growth. HeyOrca being a startup with loose job descriptions and constantly evolving needs attracts a certain breed of people. You're surrounded by extremely driven, passionate, and intelligent individuals - day in and day out. This pushes you to continuously improve, which is a value of everyone on the team. There are many things that make HeyOrca a unique and amazing place to work, but the opportunity to learn and grow is chief among them.

Svantaggi

While I personally consider the lack of structure and very fast pace a pro, others may definitely find it a con. A startup environment is not for everybody and not having a manager prescribe what you do from 9-5 can definitely be a little stressful for the average employee. The management team is definitely young and lacks experience, which can lead to some frustration, but they are committed to continuous improvement. Overall, the experience is a work in progress and everyone is involved in shaping that experience.
