Pros

Work life balance, biweekly paycheck.

Cons

This company is disastrous. They have closed several offices and are hemorrhaging money. People are constantly being let go or jumping ship on their own. There is no HR, no order and no processes in place, and most importantly the product itself is not good. What I was told about the product and the future of the company during interviews was a complete fabrication. I truly feel that I wasted a good portion of my career working here. Many people know each other from a previous company and were hired because of nepotism. Lastly, I know for a fact that the positive reviews were written or requested by management because while I worked there I was asked to post a positive review to combat all the negative ones. The recent one below that says FieldAware is a "world class company" and on the way to be a "market leader" is a great example. The company has gotten rid of half of its employees, closed offices and the most recent CEO left, so that statement is laughable. The company is a joke.

Pros

Invested in value added, long-term customer relationships with a customer first attitude, even when challenges arise. Positive company culture starting from the top down. FieldAware is growing rapidly, in product capabilities, partnerships and customers.

Cons

Some normal growing pains, but no major cons at this time

Pros

A few employees and the ideology of the product. Company has a laissez-faire attitude.

Cons

It would be easy to write a book about the cons of FieldAware as a company and as a product. The poor management and company decisions were bewildering. If someone on the board reads this I urge you to closely evaluate every department including the CEO (Charlie). At this point I don't believe the company can bounce back, but that would be a great starting point. ~The product (software) is bad, often crashes, looks like something built in the 80's and isn't configurable (contrary to what is sold). ~Customers are not valued and often internally laughed at. ~The product team is incompetent and unable to build features promoted for various releases. If they manage to release something it's often broken or incomplete. ~Unable to advance/be promoted ~Company recently closed several offices and laid-off almost half the employees to make ends meet.
