Pros

I learned a tremendous amount when I worked here, having been only a beginner when I was hired. If you are curious and want to learn, the opportunity is there for you - or it least, it was when I worked there. Great for building skills and pumping up your resume. Another pro is the swank remodeled office building and location in beautiful Traverse City Michigan.

Cons

The turnover rate of this company can speak for itself. It's unusually large. Most locals already know what's up, but If you are considering moving from an outside city to work here, I encourage you to do your research and get in touch with TC residents so you can learn more. Be prepared to deal with senior management that micromanages every aspect of your job performance, from scheduled lunch breaks to requests for doctors notes. Salaries are extremely low compared to industry standards, and vacation/sick time is limited during your first year(s). Finally, the general office atmosphere culture and environment is decidedly unfun and paranoid - at least, that was my personal experience during the 2+ years I was there before I finally quit.

Pros

Unrivaled company culture, with the opportunity to work alongside some truly talented, passionate people. Everyone worked as a team, even across departments, with no work being "too small" for any person. Everyone has a voice, and your contributions are immediately and directly felt. Couldn't recommend Oneupweb more!

Cons

Can't think of any cons

Pros

Oneupweb has a hardworking and dedicated team that consistently strives for excellence. Employees often go above and beyond.

Cons

While Oneupweb offers a strong, hardworking team, there are significant downsides. The company provides little room for career advancement, and the salary is not reflective of the high stress and workload expected. Work-life balance is almost nonexistent, with demands often spilling over into personal time. The fun social events can only do so much to make up for these challenges. Don’t always believe what you see on social media. Additionally, the CEO’s leadership style can be problematic. Initially supportive, his demeanor changes once you stop “drinking the kool-aid”. He’s displayed immature behavior and a lack of professionalism during employee departures. The company’s leadership, combined with its other limitations, can make it difficult to recommend as a long-term career option.
