It's an exciting place to be. The environment is high energy, high speed and we get to work with cutting-edge, industry-leading video surveillance technology and visual intelligence software. The team here is amazing and the work environment feels like a family. It's an honor to work in such a talented 'think tank' of innovators, creatives and strategic visionaries.
Cons
Because we are growing fast, the workload increases in waves until new staff is hired to handle the increase. This is a great scenario if you want to move up in your field, and not so great if you don't like change.

Thank you for the feedback, its important to me and the company as a whole. I appreciate the comment about communication, we work hard to be transparent and "share" in our growth as a company. In regards to turnover rate, as you may know, Nashville is growing dramatically and competition for talent continues to grow at the same time. We are launching a proactive effort to make sure we stay ahead of the growth to continue to offer the best jobs, with the most interesting growth opportunities, at the best salaries in Nashville. In regards to workload, I will bring that to the attention of our executive staff for individual reviews. We are committed to a balanced work environment.
I've really been enjoying working at Smartvue, and I think there are a couple key reasons for this:
- I really do think we have a great team, and I'm tremendously grateful for that.
- The leadership has shown itself to be wonderful at understanding how to handle issues that can crop up. I truly appreciate that the attitude is never finger pointing, but "what do we learn and how do we get better". This alone has gone a long way towards really endearing me to the company.
- The product itself is continuing to evolve, and that makes it something exciting to work on and be a part of.
Cons
We continue to evolve the product on a daily basis, which is great. However, this can mean that we don't have time to work on some things that might be worth giving attention to. I think we're doing a decent job of prioritizing, though. So, this may not be much of an issue as we focus on goals in the future.

Thank you for the review and feedback. It is important to me and helps to keep us progressing. Growing a company offers an endless number of challenges as well as the opportunities to improve together and individually. Its a good idea, and I will review with our team how to improve the feedback loop on process improvement. I also encourage you to present your ideas directly to your team leader and sell your case! I appreciate the opportunity to lead this team and look forward to a great year.
