Pros

It could be different from technical versus operations teams, but the trust put on you to do your work well is incredible. At least to me, the Yorke's were extremely encouraging and particularly fun and generous during company events. The leadership team also highly prioritizes work/life balance, and I never felt overwhelmed, nor did I feel like I was twiddling my thumbs doing nothing. Their interview/ hiring practice is solid and you would be surprised at how many wonderful people that are on the team. The kind and fun colleagues you work with are definitely the best part.

Cons

I think the cons will improve over time as they continue to grow. The limited holidays/ PTO are a bit of a downside, but the office setting and workload are extremely manageable. They are flexible and considerate when outside circumstances arise in your personal life. It was an incredibly difficult decision to leave and only did so due to a unique opportunity that I was presented. What struck me the most was how gracious and understanding the Yorke's were when I made the decision. I did not feel remotely ostracized when I left and they were great and understanding. I would say the way they handled that proved they have a solid culture of caring for people.

Pros

Yorke makes a point of allowing people to do what they love; over my years here, I've given feedback on the responsibilites that I enjoy, that I don't, and what projects I'd like to be involved it - and they've listened. My role has shifted more towards doing when I love. They place a high priority on company culture and work life balannce. They invest a lot in both fostering a community in the workplace and in individual professional development. I understand that community in the workplace isn't for everyone, but personally, I want to work in a place where I know and enjoy time with my coworkers. They have optional clubs, activities, happy hours, and sports to be involved in. 5 times/year they require staff to travel into the headquarters for meetings, but those are the only mandatory events. The daily hours/schedules are flexible, and they respect PTO/time outside of work hours. They pay very well.

Cons

Holidays and PTO are pretty limited. Other reviews complain about nepotism...yes, it is a family owned company, started 30 years ago by the current owner, but I have never see nepotism shown in a unfair/concerning way.

Filling out a timesheet can be tricky, fast paced, can sometimes be lacking in guidance, stingy with overhead, in need of more senior project management, infrequent holidays.
