Pros

I came from a competitor and was nervous that all the reviews I read on Glassdoor were just hype. After my first couple months, I could tell this company and all the reviews were legit. The interview/hiring process with Lori was extremely easy - she was very responsive and answered any questions I had throughout the process. From the interview process through orientation on-site at the Tampa office, it was clear that Schellman invests heavily in its internal infrastructure (HR, accounting, IT) - it allowed for a seamless transition into a new company. I was also lucky to start at a great time. A few weeks into my new role, and I was off to Mexico for an all expenses paid trip with a +1. That annual company trip really speaks to how much Schellman values and invests back into its employees. I typically work from home, which can be challenging for some people if you aren't used to that. The great thing is that I never feel like I'm being micro-managed with someone looking over my shoulder all the time. The managers and principals treat you with respect and give you space, as long as you work hard and meet your deadlines. The work/life balance here is incredible. The benefits have been mentioned many times in other reviews, but they are truly second to none and unlike any other company I have worked/interviewed for: -extremely competitive salary -10% 401k match -Generous PTO - 3 weeks per year for new employees PLUS 2 weeks off during Christmas/New Year's when the company shuts down... from experience, those "unlimited PTO" policies at other companies aren't really that great -no-cost healthcare (employee only) -no time entry/billing -fully paid training and certifications (including maintenance fees) -travel bonuses when traveling on non-standard days -quarterly profit sharing bonuses -annual company trips -cell phone/internet reimbursement up to $150/mo -ability to travel

Cons

There's not many I can think of so far. If you don't like to travel, that might be a negative as most of the service delivery personnel are remote. The amount of travel varies by department, but I have been averaging about 1 week of travel out of every 5 weeks.. very reasonable. The only benefit we currently don't have (as far as I know) is a gym membership reimbursement. However, when you're traveling to a client, you can get reimbursed for gym fees.

Pros

Management frequently improves benefits. Management really knows the business well. The company has historically been well insulated from economic downturns. So many opportunities to stand out and make a name for yourself

Cons

Data driven decisions still a work in progress. Long term vision is likely 1 ish year.

Pros

The people. Peers are great to work with and very supportive. Some of the leaders in the teams are as well. Perks were GREAT but have slowly been taken away or the costs went up.

Cons

Where do I begin? Wholesale executive turnover. Technology projects that we're supposed to say are awesome but aren't really that great. They take up more time to figure out than they're worth and we know those are meant to take our jobs. AI, offshore, temp labor. No thanks. It was a place I loved working at but has slowly just become a job that makes me feel like I should be watching for somewhere else to go. Just in case. The culture has changed quite a bit too. It used to feel like a place where we all wanted to work together but that's slowly fading.
