Pros

Afterburner is a small company with tons of opportunity for growth. Clients consist of Fortune 500 type companies and Afterburner is often brought in at the VP to C-Suite level. No day is the same and every employee is challenged. This is not a job for a clock watcher, but if you are hungry and willing to put in the work, there is no better reward than seeing your value immediately impact the bottom line of a company.

Cons

Afterburner has struggled with hiring the right talent over the years. They are a small company that oftentimes feels like a family but this has cause them to hold on to employees too long on occasion. Hiring effectively and narrowing their focus will be key to scaling.

Pros

Incredible opportunity to work with some of the most elite, professional team members transitioning from military to corporate. Truly an outstanding methodology and framework. Leadership team has high expectations and rightfully so - Proven results year over year. Working here allowed me to sharpen my skill-set, identify professional weaknesses, and build business relationships that I would have never been exposed to otherwise.

Cons

Your 15-20 years of military experience may not translate perfectly in the business world. Be open to feedback and look for opportunities to grow.

Pros

There are not that many pros in all honesty. When traveling you get to stay in nice hotels and points. However, the client picks all of that up not the company.

Cons

They are extremely late in paying their 1099 consultant staff. They claim to be net 30 however it can often take well over 90 days to get paid. They will also not pick up the interest since you are using your own personal card. Favoritism runs rampant within the organization and is seen constantly. If you are leading an event you will most likely be assigned last minute even if the event was booked months in advance which is frustrating as you will not be able to build the client relationship. Leadership leads from behind not in front all while preaching how great they are and saying how poor you are.
