Pros

Software development team were great people to work with. The Talent / Staffing group continues to be profitable, and is keeping the company afloat.

Cons

There is NO leadership, with consistent issues between the owners, which creates unnecessary stress and unease for the employees. Managers are not empowered. SD group has declined from 40+ employees in Jan 2016 to less than 10. The culture has been decimated. Benefits offered are below par. No marketing department, no real QA resources, and HR is a revolving door, as they are on their 3rd HR person in 2017.

OpenArc Response

Thank you, sincerely, for posting your thoughts on what it takes to be successful in your "advice to management". I will take it on faith that you truly are interested in making OpenArc a great place to work and are honestly offering your thoughts on where we should focus. So, thank you. You will be happy to know that we have been investing in office improvements, that pay and benefits continue to rise quickly, and that we continue to make having a great culture a focus. It's hard to know how to best respond to the factual errors in your post. I guess it's not surprising that you wouldn't know how many employees there are in SD, though a little surprising how far off you are. Let's just leave it as this: I appreciate your concern for OpenArc, and your anonymously offered advice. I will very happily buy you lunch anytime if you'd like to learn more about what's happening at OpenArc nowadays. Call or email me - you don't even have to refer to this post. I sincerely believe you would be encouraged. OpenArc’s CEO

Pros

Having worked with the various departments at OpenArc, I feel appreciated for my specific skills and knowledge of the business. Management is responsive and has invested heavily in creating growth opportunities for hard-working active contributors. There is a client-centered mentality at OpenArc, meaning if you need to go the extra mile, you will do so, and time has shown that you will be rewarded for doing so. There is a great bunch of staffing and software professionals in this organization who work relentlessly to deliver the best talent- resources and IT solutions to our customers, because they believe in what they do, they believe in their co-workers, and believe in their management.

Cons

I honestly can not think of anything negative to say about OpenArc- there may have been a few bumps along the way, but I feel that is the case with any growing company. At the end of the day there is a great group of hard working people that show up and work hard every day, it is truly a pleasure to be a part of this organization.
