Pros

The working environment is very open. Those with good ideas are listened to regardless of rank. Executive team has the same desk setup as every other employee. There is a lot of room for growth in the company and management is helpful. Compensation is very solid. The old Chicago office was great and there is about to be another beautiful new office in Chicago.

Cons

The only con I can think of is that the company does suffer from some growing pains as it is rapidly expanding. Sometimes projects can fall to the wayside and who owns the project can be murky.

Pros

Very flexible. It depends on the team but my team is pretty laid back. Unlimited PTO and sick time is great, and they try to do some fun events in the office too

Cons

Made us come back to the office

Pros

- Solid opportunities to work with a modern tech stack, including lots of cloud-based tools and enterprise SaaS platforms. - Collaborative teams and mostly supportive coworkers make day-to-day work enjoyable. Most teams are not super large. Average size probably being around 20-30 members. - Good work-life balance. Consistent 8 hour days. Overtime projects were not common. My experience with the company culture was that it was reasonably chill and not overly stuffy.

Cons

- Career growth and advancement can depend heavily on team or manager. They did put a ton of work into creating a career advancement framework with supposedly clearly defined markers. But ZERO of the managers I had ever referenced, followed, or implemented actions from it. Even when I made it a point to bring it up during my employee reviews. - At the time of this review they have implemented mandatory return to office and physical presence required for all employees (within distance). - Occasional silos between departments can impact efficiency and communication. Specifically People Operations (that's what the call HR). Processes involving People Ops such as onboarding, policy clarification, or internal requests are often not clear or even followed. - They love to put the letters "iM" in front of all the internal programs and branding. EG. "iMAway" for PTO time or to mean you are on vacation. I don't know, it's kinda cute at times. But can also be cringe sometimes.

Thank you for this thoughtful and detailed review. The feedback on iThrive is the most important thing here, and we hear it. Building a career progression framework only matters if managers are actually using it in practice. If that gap existed in your experience, that is a real problem, and it is something leadership needs to audit. On your People Ops comment, we are actively working to improve clarity and consistency in processes like onboarding and internal requests. Cross-functional communication, particularly between ops functions and the broader org, is an area we give great attention. We appreciate the time you put into this, and we wish you well in what comes next.
