This Place Was Wonderful Until the Day it Wasn't - SEO Analyst bei Local SEO Guide: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Well, I've been in the SEO game for 8 years. A mix of which has been spent at previous agencies, in-house roles, freelancing, essentially the whole gamut of possible SEO roles. This is by far the best group of people I've had the opportunity to work with, for a bunch of reasons. -Fully remote with experienced people that know how to manage a remote team properly, a balanced mix of autonomy and accountability -Top tier clients, no BS projects. Real SEO for real companies, CEO is responsible for all of the sales, no sales team -Ownership is transparent about revenue, trajectory of clients/prospects, health of the company... It's profitable, I'm well paid, I've received substantial bonuses simply for doing my job well. -Friendly coworkers, it's a small company and easy to fit in here. Annual company retreat was a lot of fun. Rooftop drinks in a hot tub in L.A., in December, before the world ended. We attempted an escape room. We almost didn't fail. A victorious Korean BBQ feast was had regardless. -I've been getting fresh fruit in the mail from Oregon for months in lieu of not having a break room??? -HR Jill is a sweetheart, probably the nicest person I've ever virtually met. Pretty sure she's responsible for the fruit -This company cares about its people, during the coronavirus pandemic our CEO offered to cover any costs for online counseling, if insurance didn't cover it. We've had days off to go vote in elections, days off for the BLM protests, days off just because everyone had been working hard and could use a Friday off.

It's a remote job, which anyone can struggle with for all the reasons that make remote jobs unique Small tech company that's growing will go through small tech company growing pains, I've seen it in multiple previous companies I was with that grew rapidly. The same types of problems will occur here and require empathy to get through. No one has a perfect guideline how to navigate growing a company and blunders will happen, as you add new team members, every person is unique and will add unique complexities to the team make up. It's a natural growing pain of developing a group of people, and LSG will no doubt be faced with these kinds of issues and be challenged with resolving them. So far I've been impressed with what I've witnessed though. I think the leadership is very open minded and willing to listen to their employees when concerns are voiced to them; and take action to make improvements. They don't just "listen" and do nothing... Something I've witnessed in previous companies.

-received a robust audit for a problem client (as paid for)

-was pulled into a call on behalf of my boss, and got SCREAMED at by the CEO. If I were male, or perhaps over the age of 24, he may not have treated me in that way?
