Pros
CONNECT is a work environment based on trust where open door really is just that - the executive team will listen to ideas and really wants to involve the whole team in decisions and direction. There is a lot of trust put in the employees to execute their jobs without micro-management. Having been at the organization for over a year, I have see a great deal of change - all of it extremely positive. CONNECT has an incredible direction now that it never had before - it is focused, mission-driven, and becoming more successful every day. There was a great deal of staff turn over in the past year, which is usually a sign of unsteadiness, but in reality it was more aligning the staff with the duties and expectations of where CONNECT is headed. There is an incredible amount of opportunity for growth, there is good reward in salary for a job well done. I've seen people get raises and promotions to reward hard work and dedication without having to ask for them and these rewards are tied to performance, not who you know or how long you have been there. There is an incredible new office and a new breath of fresh air around CONNECT. Now that the leadership has been hiring positive, hard-working people there is a great culture and a very team-oriented attitude throughout the entire office, we are poised for bigger and better achievements than ever before.
Cons
Sometimes there are long hours, but when you serve innovation and start-up companies that seems natural. The longer days are fewer and farther between.
