Pros

The list of pros is massive, but here are the top five for me: 1) Collaborative and inclusive culture. 2) A leadership team that actively listens to employees and makes decisions from those conversations. 3) Everyone cares about making the company successful. 4) Continuous learning initiatives as a means of investing in employees. 5) Anyone can talk to anyone at a moments notice. BONUS PRO: 6) 1-1 structure and cadence is the best I have ever seen and been a part of.

Kontras

Towards the end of my time there, the ratio of meetings to maker time was not ideal. I know that they were/are actively fixing that.

Pros

Top-Tier Compensation & Resources: The company pays very well and genuinely invests in its employees by providing excellent resources to help us succeed. Incredible Culture & Team: My coworkers and team members are amazing, hardworking, and deeply dedicated. There is a strong sense of camaraderie, and we do truly meaningful work together every day. Fantastic Remote Environment: The remote work setup is seamless and highly effective, making it a wonderful place to work from anywhere. Rewarding Leadership: As a manager, it is incredibly fulfilling to support my team, solve problems for our customers, and cross the finish line on major tasks. I feel genuinely lucky to be a part of this organization.

Kontras

Learning Curve & Operational Complexity: The environment is very fast-paced, and the product itself is highly complex. It takes a significant amount of time to learn the ins and outs, which naturally makes managing the operations space a bit challenging. Heavy Manual Workload: There are a lot of manual reviews required, which can lead to an increased workload for managers. Growing Pains: Right now, there is a lot of reliance on "tribal knowledge" and navigating gray areas. As the company continues to expand, leadership will need to prioritize building more standardized, scalable processes to ease the operational burden.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! It is wonderful to hear you feel so supported through our compensation and the resources we provide. Crossing the finish line on major tasks and solving tough customer problems is only possible when we truly work together as a team, so I am glad you get to experience that camaraderie every day. We also love that the remote environment is working so well for you. That’s exactly why we bring the whole company together twice a year for our Forward Palooza events, in addition to individual team offsites throughout the year, keeping those team bonds strong while enjoying the flexibility of working from anywhere. We really appreciate your candid notes on our operational growing pains. Learning a complex product is tough, and relying on informal knowledge or heavy manual reviews adds a lot to your plate. Documenting those gray areas and building scalable processes is a major priority for us as we continue to grow, and your feedback helps highlight exactly where we need to focus our efforts. Thank you for believing in our vision and for being such a wonderful part of the Forward team.
