Incredible opportunity to be part of a once in a lifetime company - Recensione dipendente - Series Director presso Human Movement

The pros are the employees who were here early were able to shape a culture and direction of the company. We grew through rocket speed growth and through an amazing acquisition. The company recently moved to a new office location that is getting renovated, but still has the start-up charm that the company was built on.

The company still requires a ton of energy and passion. It is not a job where you can simply crank out widgets and do business as usual. That can be draining to be at your best every weekend but the end result is rewarding.

You may have the option of putting on fun events around the US. You have the opportunity to be creative.

Time at HMM is measured not in months or years but in how many rounds of layoffs you have undergone. The company's numbers swell then are purged every 18 months or so. First it was the remnants of the Color Run. Then the purge after Atlas Race, Corner Store, Foam Fest, 5k Dance Party, Movies in the Park, and Brew and View all went belly up. Most recently has been the result of lack of ticket sales, lack of large scale events proposed, and events like DirtyBird, Zombie Run, and out of state Oktoberfest going belly up. Like Hydra, HMM somehow is able to slither back into existence even when it would appear dead. It does so with a price, namely becoming more and more unrecognizable to the image and culture it tries so hard to pretend to be. The most recent buyout by megacorp may be the final blow to the "cool startup" culture. Examples include a partially employee funded healthcare package replaces office happy hours. A 0% 401k match replaces home run derbys. A slew of corporate policies replace the entire "team" (company) going to and producing great events. One element that seems unchanging through all the upheaval is the core personnel. This incestuous group has been around since the beginning. They have pledged their loyalty which appears to mean more than results. Going on a walk around the new large office is like entering a cemetery. The windowless tin can of a building provides a needed barrier between the road and evidence of long gone events. HMM, where events go to die
