Team environment - Anonymous employee TantaComm Employee Review

As a smaller, quickly growing company, there are a lot of opportunities for growth and to have your ideas heard. The management is always open to feedback, and they expect creativity and initiative in contributing to the development of their products and in internal process improvement. The environment is challenging, but collaborative, with a great deal of teamwork and support. The expectations for employees are high, but reasonable, and it's really the sort of work environment where you truly get out what you put in.

Anyone who wants a highly structured, 9-to-5, clock-in-clock-out sort of job would probably not be well-suited for TantaComm. The lack of formal processes and documentation for some things means employees need to be independent, unafraid of a challenge, and take initiative. While this work environment isn't ideally suited for certain personalities and work styles, it does offer enormous flexibility and opportunities for creativity and professional development.

Three years ago, TantaComm's face was a small app that did basic functions on a eye soring amber colored UI, banked heavily on developers and had little to no growth with technology at hand. From there it has grown into a calmer green app which not only supports a tonne of complex configurations but also offers a paired down simpler version for small to mid size businesses. It has been fun working here with each project offering a unique challenge that has enhanced my skills. Ideas are respected here, you are allowed to ask questions and obtain answers. Senior management that I work with has always respected transparency of communication - it is a clean place to work at. Whether you are someone who needs shadow based learning or someone who is advanced enough to put it in gear and get going, you will get a fair chance at both. I find it very valuable that we strive to make ourselves and our clients self dependent in every possible manner.

Like any SMB company, TantaComm has its own challenges. We sometimes over aspire at what we can deliver but have not fallen back on commitments. Though some definitions of expectations differ, the goal is always consistent. There is sometimes friction within teams but to a level that is healthy for the overall advancement of the organization.
