Too good to be true...usually is - Sales EarQ Employee Review

This company is getting a lot of things right. It starts with looking at each candidate for a cultural fit, as much as the skill set they would bring. I've seen time and time again the absolute dedication to getting the right people in the right positions. It's a work hard, play hard atmosphere. If you want to grow professionally and personally, this team is amazing, challenging, open, and caring. If you're not open to challenging yourself to be better than you were the day before, then you probably wouldn't be a good fit. This company really cares about its employees and has demonstrated it in many ways since my employment began. I have many years of experience and have never felt more appreciated or cared for by another company. In addition to company culture, EarQ cares very much about its members and the programs we offer. We're always looking for ways to improve. I honestly don't understand some of the negative reviews posted here, but I'm glad I went with my gut and didn't take them too much to heart. I believe it can be a hard pill to swallow for some people when they realize their performance, attitude, or hunger for growth doesn't match what the company is looking for. A wellness program, company outings, ping pong and basketball in the back, gym equipment and frequent company cookouts for lunch are all just bonuses to the awesome work environment and open door policy. Oh, and nobody asked me to write this review. I'm writing in on my own accord.

There are some growing pains as the company expands, but that is to be expected. The changing industry creates some challenges to expand on our offerings. Resources are somewhat limited with a small team, but the company is dedicated to expanding its workforce by 50% over the next few years.

If you like drinking beer at work, managers with inappropriate skirts and unprofessional cleavage, and being left to your own devices while management goes to Vegas for an Industry event which is a "Gala", then try it out. If you want to see someone who is the heart and soul of the place get fired and have it announced that he's choosing to leave for better opportunities, then go for it. If you can pick up your job in two weeks and be a star, and NEVER be less than positive, never say out loud you're tired, never mention you don't feel well, then it is the place for you.

When you go you leave behind peers that really did try to help you. And a certain manager of training that I'm pretty sure has your back. Oh and the IT/ marketing team rocks. They should start their own company.
