No question is ever out of bounds. You can go to anyone, even the CEO, and ask hard questions and they actually appreciate it.
I got to meet a number of team members before starting. Made it feel like I knew more people to get going on better footing.
A sense of accomplishment. After going through a period of pivoting, it feels like we're seeing wins and momentum more regularly now. It's a lot of fun to see the work I do making an impact.
I like the constant commitment to transparency. It makes it easier to understand what's going on and how to make an impact. I don't waste time guessing what people really want or need as I have in past jobs.
We're moving to nationwide salaries in 2022, which has been a really nice change. As someone who lives in a lower cost state, I now earn substantially more than I could have a couple years ago, which makes for a more comfortable life.
The company has been really good at hiring people who learn and grow quickly. Less capable people wouldn't make it here long - and the leadership has gotten better at making those hard calls when needed, while giving the individual a fair transition path.
