      Great People, Experience, Benefits, and Opportunities

      Pros

      The company is small so that means that your contributions are noticeable; you are not just a number. There are tons of opportunity for growth because your contributions are noticed, you can advance laterally and vertically. The company offers a variety of services to clients so there are many things you can try out if you wish. Benefits are great. Pay is competitive. Bonuses are okay if you are in support, but great if you are a consultant or in management/leadership. Lots of holidays and PTO. They make a nice effort to make sure the people are heard and taken care of because they ask for feedback and do check-ins regularly. There are free snacks and fun activities if you decide you want to work in the office. The hybrid work schedule is really nice. Support staff is super helpful and friendly. The people that you get to work with are seriously great. Fun, friendly, and very knowledgeable people that you can learn A LOT from. If you get to work at the company, this would be one of the best reasons to come aboard. There's tons of industry and professional knowledge that you can feed off of to better yourself personally and professionally. Micro-management is nonexistent if you're delivering quality work. The company is very accommodating to those that put in the effort and also very veteran friendly.

      Cons

      The company is small so that means there will be some expected growing pains. It's common for people to wear several hats to keep things afloat. This can be pretty stressful for some and their whole team will feel it. Upper management sometimes disregards critical feedback from employees and assigns tasks/project that are out of scope from their original employment. As a tech company, can be more on the traditional side rather than progressive. It took a long time for the company to get cool with 100% remote working after the initial hit of the pandemic. Even now though, it seems that there is preference for employees to come into the office: there are designated days that people are 'supposed to' come in. Sometimes upper management can be way too busy which causes them to be out of touch, disengaged, and when they come back in touch, will provide irrelevant and unnecessary criticisms. There's no sales team/executive so a lot of sales pressure gets put on upper management which can cause them to be stretched too thin to be present. Decision-making for company-wide change are too concentrated and narrow at the top.

      Good place to work, typical small company pros/cons

      Pros

      I think Smartbridge has the best happy medium between working for a big consulting firm and the risks of a startup. Its easy to get involved in whatever you want, just speak up. Yes you usually work a little more than 40+ hours a week such as any consulting firm. There's plenty of opportuities to present in an internal meeting, do community events, hackathons, etc. PTO is typical and healthcare as well.

      Cons

      I'm not sure where all the hostility has come from because everyone i've seen leave recently is due to the great resignation, and people saying 'it was a hard choice', but leaving for the next new shiny thing. Pay and opportunities have increased to adjust to the job market. Expectations are high though, because each person has to carry their weight to ensure projects are met.

      Pros

      -Competitive Pay -With it being a small company, communication with leadership was easy

      Cons

      -Work conditions are horrendous -Leadership prefers requiring consultants to work 50-65+ hours a week instead of hiring/staffing projects appropriately -Benefits are subpar compared to modern tech companies

      Thank you for your feedback. As a small company, we are proud of our people for working as hard as they do; it’s what helps uphold Smartbridge’s reputation of excellence with our clients and towards each other. We are a team and sometimes when you are in a team, you pull the weight of a heavy project together. This may look like working a few hours extra, celebrating together, communicating more, and when successful, reaping the rewards. We have maintained competitive pay and benefits and keep a watchful eye for MVPs. We have an open-door policy regarding any concerns so we encourage our employees speak up if they feel unhappy in any way. We truly appreciate this feedback and will continue to work on encouraging our employees to speak up. We want to work with our team to cultivate a mutually beneficial relationship. We appreciate the time you’ve taken to provide this feedback, thank you.
