Pros
Growing, global company Learning and development support for all employees Awesome colleagues
Cons
US health benefits are ok, but not great
- 5.0Mar 15, 2022Senior Project ManagerCurrent Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
We have very talented colleagues across all of our practices. Our culture is work hard play hard, but also very understanding that we all have a life outside of work.
Cons
US based employees can end up with early morning meetings depending on the client and need. I’m not bothered by putting in time early, but this probably isn’t a great fit for someone who anyone who doesn’t like working before 8 am.

Pros
There's a lot of super interesting work. Plenty of opportunities to express curiosity and shape your role into what you want it to be. Depending on your values this can be enough to counterbalance the cons below.
Cons
Some individuals and practices are very sophisticated in the work they do while others are not. It is like chess vs checkers and it negatively impacts the ability to deliver on complex projects. It's a bummer to be proud of your work and slowly watch it fall apart as other departments manage it poorly. Poor project management and scope management capabilities.

Pros
I have been in client solutions for over 3 years. MentorMate is a forward thinking company, a trendsetter in mobile and web since 2001. The creator of www.mobcon.com. A competitive marketplace demands employees go the extra mile to satisfy clients. The consultants, Pm's, designers, developers and operations are top notch. The leadership guided MentorMate through choppy economic times of late 2013 when other companies closed their doors, MM thrived. MM management then negotiated the August 2014 sale to Taylor Companies, a long term benefit to all employees and clients. There are monthly employee events available for participation i.e. last weeks barbeque at the lake. Mobcon Digital Health Panel 2 weeks ago with 20 well known Health Companies in attendance at MentorMate. The Uptown Art Fair open house is scheduled for August. Mobcon is scheduled again for November. I had a client CEO tell me last week that they are extremely satisfied with MentorMate. MentorMate is right on track with balance business goals and client satisfaction.
Cons
Didn't find MentorMate sooner. For the record, I am not upper management. Also, upper management is not related whatsoever, as mentioned in another post.

Pros
fun place to work, independence to work,
Cons
not good, boring and irritating
- 3.0Aug 20, 2015MarketingFormer Employee, more than 1 yearMinneapolis, MN
Pros
Very talented co-workers willing to help you grow and learn. Some of the projects that get worked on are a lot of fun and challenging. They are always looking to improve and to be technology agnostic - whatever tools you need to do your job well, you can use. The office space in Uptown is outstanding; definitely one of the best perks. Great for an entry-level or slightly higher job.
Cons
Management is not visible. There is little to no interaction from leadership with the rest of the company. Everything feels shrouded in mystery. High turnover of employees; they completely clean out their sales team every 6-8 months and seem to live in fear of failing. Salaries are well below market value except if you're in an upper management role. The value of your work will be questioned regularly and there is an underlying feeling of needing to prove yourself and your worth everyday.

Pros
MentorMate is an exciting place to work. There is a lot of opportunity to learn and grow professionally and personally - I have learned so much from senior management over the years. The people are awesome, the office is in a great location, and we work on some really great projects. Because it's a fairly small office, it has a family feel to it. MentorMate has been like a second home for me and the time that I have been working here has been invaluable. I feel appreciated and proud of the work I do.
Cons
The environment is very fast-paced and always changing, so it's not a good fit for everyone. Just like any job, it can be stressful or frustrating at times. Benefits could use some improvements.
- 5.0Oct 13, 2017ExecutiveFormer Employee, more than 10 yearsMinneapolis, MN
Pros
Great culture is #1 at MentorMate. Open communication with all employees about how the company is doing via monthly update meetings. Leadership Team both in the USA and Bulgaria are long-standing and outstanding. Great colleagues and clients to work with. Fast growth, fast-paced, high energy, great offices, and great office locations both in Uptown and throughout Bulgaria and Sweden. What's not to like about MentorMate
Cons
Having to continue to hit their aggressive growth targets. Leadership sometimes too hard on themselves and therefore their employees to meet revenue and profit goals.
- 5.0Jul 10, 2015ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsMinneapolis, MN
Pros
Nice location. Allows employees the autonomy to make a difference. Fast growth provides opportunities for those able to take advantage of them. Solid, high integrity, executive management. Very dynamic work across lots of clients and industries.
Cons
Not really a con, but this is a fast-growth environment that might not be for everybody. If you are able to keep up and contribute the opportunities for making a positive impact for the company, and for clients are numerous.
