Flexware Innovation Reviews

Pros

Flexware has come a long ways in the past couple of years to modernize the culture and compete with other tech companies. Some of these perks include open PTO, overall flexibility, and better cash bonuses. If you are getting your work done, maintaining billable hours, and keeping customers happy, then no one is going to question you. A new modern office building is in the works and will be a welcome relief from the darker, older feel of the current office. The open spaces, location, and vibe of the new office will be another great perk. Flexware hires some of smartest and hardest working people that I know. We have great leaders at every level of the organization who are transparent and genuinely care about their employees health, job satisfaction, and happiness. I feel that the work I do here is challenging, but is recognized and is rewarding.

Cons

As a growing company during a time when the job-market is extremely hot, it sometimes feels that employees can be stretched pretty thin. This is great for job security, but it sometimes feels that you are working on something that would be best suited for a small team rather than an individual. It would be great to see more emphasis put on working as teams for better efficiency, quality, and cohesion. The scope of work can be challenging, but I view this as a good thing. It keeps things interesting and greatly builds your set of skills no matter what your job title is. With the varying scope of projects and nature of the manufacturing industry it can sometimes feel that you are stuck working with older, outdated technology. Flexware is good at pushing for the latest and greatest, but it can still be difficult in this industry.

Pros

Extremely technical leaders who care about the development of their employees, employees are given the opportunity to learn from seasoned professionals in the engineering services industry, leadership always open to new ideas and ways to grow the company - "open door" policy, aggressively looking to grow the business and create new start-up ventures within the company, producing new opportunities for current employees to go and grow. - Leadership consistently updating company road map for both short and long-team growth plans - Open PTO policy with great benefits for a smaller company

Cons

Current employment structure and growth plan can be somewhat fluid and less defined.

Pros

As an intern, Flexware gave me more leadership and career advice than anywhere else I have been. They made sure all the interns interacted with each other in several (fun!) development days and we went on a few plant tours at other companies as well. Each development day was refreshing and the entire experience has made me a more confident engineer.

Cons

I was not always fond of the culture of the company I directly worked for.

Pros

Everyone is easy to get along with for the most part. They encourage open and honest communication, and not in the giant corporate sense, they really mean it. I feel I could call the CEO or my direct supervisor and be open and honest with them. The management genuinely cares.

Cons

As with any growing business, the organizational chart can sometimes become skewed. Career path is often fluid.
