      Pros

      Greenhouse genuinely cares about its employees. Managers have always been thoughtful and considerate, and really help you do your best work.

      Cons

      While there are a lot of interesting problems to solve, it's not "flashy". Just the nature of Sas honestly

      I have been working at Greenhouse Software full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Greenhouse is one of the best places to work in NYC. I truly love my job. I've met some of my best friends here and also done some of my best work. I feel empowered and I know that management really cares about me and my success. I'm excited about the company's future!

      Cons

      Sometimes slow to correct obvious problems. Power can sometimes seem to be concentrated in the hands of a few people.

      Advice to Management

      Keep creating opportunities for people to grow.

      Pros

      The best place to work...ever! Haven't experienced a better culture in 7 previous companies I've worked for. I've never complained about work. It's the best.

      Cons

      Classic start-up challenges. Processes are still being made.

      I have been working at Greenhouse Software full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Challenging work - learning more about high end software and technology than I ever thought that I would. Flexing new mental muscles I didn't know I had.

      Creative thinking - the job itself is not an easy one, and each customer situation is so different. This prompts me to exercise my brain and collaboration skills.

      Growth - I am sharpening a set of sales skills that I had previously thought to be fully developed. I am undoubtedly growing significantly, in a relevant way that will apply to the rest of my career.

      Best solution on the market - and with that comes a price. Makes the sales challenging, stressful, but fun!

      Cons

      Expectations are high and this is not a job you can coast through. Not that this is a a con, but with this can come longer days at times.

      I have been working at Greenhouse Software full-time (More than 3 years)

      Pros

      To be honest, the people will always make or break a company for me. Your manager and your coworkers indisputably set the tone for any work environment and Greenhouse is no exception.

      This is why I'm so glad that Greenhouse excels in these areas. I've worked in numerous roles: some unchallenging jobs with good managers and some great jobs with poor managers. Greenhouse is the rare great job with strong leadership and fantastic peers.

      I've been here for several years now, and I still enjoy it as much as I did when I first joined Greenhouse. It allows me to support an industry-leading product, interact with customers daily, and work amongst some truly amazing people.

      Cons

      I would say that things can sometimes be hectic, but that's the nature of a startup. Nothing out of the ordinary.

      Advice to Management

      Continue to be open to feedback from your employees. You've been doing a great job so far.

      Pros

      - a friendly, collaborative and inclusive work environment
      - clear vision and plan from leadership
      - work-life balance is A+

      Cons

      The only downside is the lack of a 401k match.

      Keep doing what you are doing.

      Amazing people, great managers, fulfilling work, flexible PTO, lots of room for growth and new opportunities within the company

      Cons

      Honestly I can't really think of any besides not having a 401k match. There are some growing pains here and there but nothing concerning or unexpected.
