Current Employee – been working at Guavus
Pros – great technology with enormous market potential. Really exciting opportunity for people who get jazzed about building a high value company, and aren't afraid to jump in and use their initiative to get things done.
Cons – The company is growing fast which means sometimes their are rapidly shifting priorities and you need to insert yourself into conversations to make sure you're always current and focused on the most important projects.
Advice to Senior Management – Given that employees are spread across varying time zones and regions it would be helpful to implement a more user-friendly social collaboration platform for easier communications and sharing of ideas.
