Mavenlink Reviews

Pros

1. Great Working Environment - Everyone here is really helpful and friendly to work with. Even people that you don't directly work with are willing to share their knowledge if it helps you. And fun work events help to spice things up - WE NEED MORE OF THEM!
2. Great Training - I have attended several training seminars that have really helped my communication skill both professionally and personally. This company is willing to invest in their employees.
3. Best Product In The Market - When you know you've got the best product in the market, you can't help but be fired up to sell it.
3. Catered Lunches & Fully Stocked Snack Bar - Can't go wrong with that. EVER.

Advice to Management

Perhaps, a mentorship program of some sort or career day to learn the details regarding other departmental roles and how to get there. It would be nice to have Mavenlink Networking Event for us to connect with other departments since we don't often get to cross-network.

Pros

1. The work is easy. People will try to tell you it’s challenging, it’s not. So you will have work-life balance and the learning curve is not difficult.

2. Free lunch (although people will still complain about it)

3. Recognizable name in the industry. It is a nice stepping stone to a place you actually want to grow your career.

4. Cool office space.

Advice to Management

It’s becoming obvious that you do not genuinely care about your employees. Happy hours and free food is not the answer. The lack of vision is trickling down and the team feels it.

Pros

Great team, great product, free lunch daily and they will provide standing desks.

Advice to Management

Promote people based on actual management skills and ability, and provide management training. Don't promote remote people to management positions for no reason other than them being at the company for a longer period of time.

Pros

- Great team members and colleagues, the positive culture is there
- Free lunch
- The product has a lot of potential
- Fast paced industry and there's a lot of valuable information to learn

Advice to Management

Take care of your employees. Mavenlink will never grow in the right ways if you keep ignoring how unhappy your teams are. You can have the best product out there (and that's if I'm being generous), but you'll never have true success if you continue to dismiss how high your turnover rate is.

Pros

The software is great, a great business solution for multiple applications.

Advice to Management

Grow organically through success, don't just decide 'this is our market'.

Pros

Fantastic place to learn. Growth, personal development, and technical excellence are valued and management enables all R&D employees to develop their skills.
R&D management has done an amazing job at allowing feedback to flow freely between employees and management. Feedback is frequent, honest, and accurate.

Advice to Management

Penny-pinching can be terribly frustrating when it gets in the way of doing the best work I can do for the company.
Learn to trust your employees; opaque management makes me think you're trying to hide something.

Pros

- Tremendous Opportunity
- Strong Growth
- C-Level interaction (never hesitate to help with a deal)
- Provide all the tools for success (unlimited training, mentorship, open door policy)
- Promote from within
- Outstanding operations
- Industry leading product

Pros

Mavenlink has always been a great place to further your career. They are very open to employees exploring different departments and skills. As a startup most people wear many hats. If you're willing to raise your hand, Mavenlink will provide opportunities for you. Mavenlink also provides professional development courses, also known as Maven University. These courses teach employees professional skills on topics that relate both to the whole company as well as specific departments.

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work.

Pros

-Cutting edge product that is frequently being recognized in the media.
-Great people that are passionate about technology, their contributions to the team, and developing/helping others.
-The company is growing quickly and there are opportunities to work on a variety of different projects.

Advice to Management

Don't stop the good communication. The Town Hall meetings are helpful to get a pulse on what's happening and where things are going. Keep building on our current training programs and employee perks.

Pros

Mavenlink is that "Stand Out" company. I can attest to why it was voted as the best place to work at. The culture is on the right track. You are not treated as a "number"! Employees are engaged and eager. From the initial interaction with Karen Morris, Laura Sehrer, Ray Grainger, Elisa Grainger, Sandra Rangel and the remaining team, I couldn't help feel I'm part of a success story. Mavenlink is selective who they hire. Working at Mavenlink, there is a sense that you have secured the right professional home. What an exceptional company! I cannot help but be excited for the future.
