Pros

ROWE is the best. The exposure to technology is great. The company just moved into an impressive space at the Colorado Center, complete with froyo in the afternoon and outdoor working space.

Cons

It's a family company, so there is a cult like exec team that defers on the family word. The company is a bit blind to its operations and frequently pushes releases that have not been vetted by stakeholders due to ego driven politics. There are a high number of managers that are horrible. The company stopped giving management surveys because of the complaints. Underpaid in relation to industry standards.

We are so glad you are enjoying the exposure to technology. Events like the recent block-chain hackathon are intended to give people visibility whether they work in the group or not. The new office and perks of working here, including the froyo, but well beyond that are something the Company is quite proud of. Regarding some of the concerns you expressed. I am confused by the comment that surveys will no longer sent out, as that is definitely not the case. Employee surveys will continue, as will the ones we send out following events like the All Company Meeting and Picnics which were held last week. Its very important to leadership to have feedback and build off it. As for operations, as a current employee, we assume you know that is a group that is presently in the midst of continual evolution. We are very proud of the work that team has been doing, but also recognize that there is always room for improvement. We continue to explore how new processes, tools, and technology can better support the business.Finally, we realize that not all employees will have a favorable opinion of all managers, but we are launching some management training courses that are intended to help those who may be newer leaders be the best they can for their teams.

Pros

My experience here has been exceptional. The company offers a fantastic work-life balance, a supportive culture, and generous perks, all within a fully remote setup. The team is genuinely caring, and I've found ample opportunities for growth thanks to the ability to rotate teams. I initially planned to stay for a copule years before moving to a big tech company, but I've been so impressed that I've been here for many years and plan to stay longer.

Cons

Since the company operates on a nearly full-remote model, there are fewer opportunities for in-person socialization; however, the option to work from the office is always available for those who want to connect with colleagues. While the compensation is competitive and by no means low, it is important to note that it is less than what's offered by major tech companies, and no stock options are included as part of the compensation package.
