Pros

- A really fun, close-knit, and supportive local team in Australia - Autonomous work and interesting projects - Flexible working, especially during covid - Great work life balance - Empowered to learn and grow, encouraged to take the courses and workshops so always heaps to learn! - Strong leadership team in APAC - Fulfilling mission that helps change people's lives. You can see everyday how your work is positively impacting the world - Big focus on diversity and inclusion - New CEO looks promising

Cons

- Disconnected from HQ, unfortunately it can sometimes feel like we're doing our own thing and don't have the resources to truly grow locally - Lean team and sometimes limited by resources - Not as innovative as it could be (hard to change the company from a local level) - Limited career opportunities and roles unless you're in the US

Pros

General Assembly is a great place to work where you can be proud of the work and impact you have on the org and clients. If you get out of your workaholic mode, you can take advantage of the flexible PTO and the culture of understanding where you are expected to put forth 100% but also take time for yourself and your family. No one abuses that and there is trust in folks getting their work done and supporting one another.

Cons

If you are ok with staying in one role for a long time, this is your spot. I think that due to the pandemic and the economy, there is limited mobility. However, you can try to work or use skills on other teams to diversify your professional portfolio if possible. But raises and bonuses fall short.
