Pros

Great friendly people, fast paced work environment, great benefits: matching IRA contributions, 2 weeks vacation available on day 1, 3 weeks after 3rd year, good health plan (ppo)

Kontras

lower-than-average salaries for web designers and developers, senior management likes to micro-manage, senior management doesn't grasp concept of production schedules. Budgets are micromanaged and new office amenities and software require a lengthy "approval process" which is mostly used to surf the web and find a cheaper price, and if one can not be found - request is denied. For developers, production schedule is usually 50% or 75% of the estimated time for a project - this is completely arbitrarily decided on in order to make the end-contract price more attractive to clients.

Pros

I've worked in agencies for over 15 years and never have been on a team like Sharp Innovations. Great communication, room to innovate and grow, mutually respectful work environment. I love the positive attitude everyone in the company has, and how we all work together towards common goals. There is so much freedom in my role that I feel like I'm my own boss. There is a great structure, but no feeling of a corporation or status ladder. Ideas are heard and considered, and our CEO encourages new ideas, fun, and personal growth.

Kontras

I really haven't come across any cons after being with the company for almost a year. I'm remote and work out of California and they have been very pro-active about making me feel included and going out of their way to incorporate more connection between the remote team and the in-person team.

Pros

Sharp Innovations has been one of the most positive work environments I've experienced in my career. Much of that has to do with the modalities and mentalities of the people who work here, and the leadership's hiring methods. I have witnessed the hiring process a few times, and I'm continually surprised by how much thought is put into hiring not just for someone's skills and talents but how well they will fit into the cohesive friendly work environment. Although Sharp has grown even in my time here, it's still a small team so everyone is here to pitch in, help answer questions, and solve problems, which has been great. While there isn't much overlap planning-wise between the three prime departments. (Development/Programming, Frontend/Backend design, and Marketing) Everyone is very open to external input regardless of where they fall on the org chart. This has been something I've highly valued. To that point, Sharp has been the first agency I've worked at where the talent and experience levels are high, and the egos are humble.

Kontras

Each team approaches various things in different ways. Causing some confusion as to who to tap when you need some help outside of your area of focus. (This is especially true for new employees.) While leadership is open to new ideas, it seems to me there ​is a slight bias against overhauling and implement new systems internally
