Pros

AMAZING sell during the interview process. Given a mentor and scheduled check-ins (see cons) Good starting Salary Beautiful office

Kontras

Where do I start... Heed the negative reviews, the positive reviews are clearly padding to increase interest in working here. - You will be assessed on how random power hungry individuals feel about you. - You will receive unfair and often very confusing feedback. You will leave a mentor meeting feeling great and as you process the conversation later you will begin to feel you didn't actually get anything constructive from the conversation. - Office is dominated by women who are easily threatened by the success of others. - As stated in other reviews, you will be given extremely positive feedback and then very quickly be let go with zero explanation. - This is a cult atmosphere and appears to be very positive; appearances are deceiving. Don't sip the punch and have individual thoughts, if you don't immediately get drunk on the punch you will be let go quickly. - You will not be doing what you were hired to do. - They hire you based on previous work experience and success but then tell you those experiences/knowledge/skills you have learned are irrelivent because they are not the AdviceOne way. - I worked for 2 weeks before I had any idea I had two supervisors. - Management structure is very unclear and no one focuses on one department at a time. Makes communication difficult and often confusing. Please invest in yourself and you future and pass on this "Opportunity." I am a skilled and successful, hardworking individual and my experience here only hurt my ability to find the place where I could experience success. Also, be aware that once you are let go with no expressed reason (even on your dismissal paperwork) you are going to have to try to explain in future interviews your experiences here. It's almost impossible and if you are not prepared it could cost you future opportunities all due to no fault of your own.

Pros

My experience with AdviceOne has been both challenging and highly rewarding, contributing significantly to my personal and professional growth. The culture emphasizes continuous development, and employees are regularly provided with direct, candid feedback. While this feedback can be difficult to receive at times, it is delivered with the genuine intent of helping individuals improve and succeed. Managers actively encourage team members to push beyond their comfort zones and strive toward becoming the best version of themselves. This expectation creates an environment where development is not only supported but expected. The team is composed of driven, high-performing individuals who are committed to their work and to one another. There is a strong sense of collaboration and unity across the organization, with colleagues working together toward shared goals. The pace of work is fast, with frequent changes that require adaptability. Despite this, AdviceOne promotes work-life balance and encourages employees to maintain a healthy balance between their professional and personal lives. Overall, this is an excellent environment for individuals who are motivated, open to feedback, and eager to grow in a high-performance setting.

Kontras

The direct and candid nature of feedback can be difficult to receive at times. Employees are frequently pushed outside of their comfort zones, which can feel challenging, especially in the early stages. The fast-paced environment and constant change can be demanding and may require a high level of adaptability to manage effectively.

Pros

1. Honest Feedback: Conversations and feedback are given in a way that is both caring and direct. Every member of the team and in Leadership cares about you personally AND will challenge you directly to be your best and even better. 2. Partnership Mentality: Leadership is not looking to hire employees to come in and do a job. Rather, they look to hire Business Partners who strive to raise the bar of excellence while reaching for individual and organizational success. The owner dedicates time in knowing every single new hire and is the first person to use a closet as his office to give a better space to his team. 3. Growth Opportunities: The company is consistently looking to keep you one notch out of your comfort zone, which, while this can be challenging, it provides an opportunity for growth for those who are eager for more. 4. Employee focused: There are so many benefits for team members and their families. AdviceOne wants to know you and your family and not only watch you grow but be able to help support it.

Kontras

1. High expectations. Everyone came from being the best or has proved themselves to grow into the best. This can be a hard adaptation when you are used to being the best and now are being challenged to be even better. 2. Fast paced: Change is consistent here. You need to be willing to adapt to new processes because there is always an eye for improvement. 3. Determining your work-life balance: With everything said, it is harder than it looks to want to be the best professionally and call out when you need a break or time off.
