Pros
I'm grateful to be a Maven every single day for countless reasons and here are a few reasons as to why: • Not a day goes by when I don't learn something new whether it's sharpening some techniques or learning about a brand new company. I'm constantly developing and being challenged as a professional and individual. • Maven has an incredible, dynamic, and diverse team filled with absolutely wonderful people with the most unique, eclectic backgrounds. The synergy in our gorgeous office is infectious, which makes work an enjoyable place to be at every single day. • I absolutely admire and respect all the leaders behind this steadfast, growing, ambitious company. They're all insanely driven, naturals at inspiring others, have great taste in food, embrace humorous personalities and above all they have large hearts and big brains filled with vast knowledge/experience in this industry! My current manager is very selfless and undeniably caring and supportive of my professional success and personal well-being. Within a year I can confidently say that I've grown immensely in my role thanks to her! Our CEO is also absolutely incredible. I could say so many admirable things about her commitment to our team, clients and candidates' success and happiness. I also love being able to work so closely with her. • Simply put, I absolutely love our network and I'm always astonished by the types of companies/executives that we partner with. I also appreciate our company's mission and values. • Lastly, management genuinely cares about your professional growth. I've been able to express some ideas and seen them come to life! I've also been comfortable enough to speak about my personal goals and I love how my manager works with me on developing a tangible action plan. • Last thing, I feel like we are spoiled at Maven with the amazing perks. Some of our team outings are my favorite Bay Area memories, and I definitely had the best Maui trip, ever! President’s Club amazing!
Cons
This is a company/team who is committed to success. We are in the business of people and these people entrust us with a crucial part in their life or business. This is an ambitious team and we strive to go beyond for our candidates and clients. If you like to clock in and clock out on time every day and completely check-out after work then this may not be the right industry or team for you. If you're someone who doesn't mind being dialed in off hours to do a last minute candidate prep call or stay a few extra hours to get work done then we are the team for you! This type of work ethic has shown me how to be truly successful in my role and for my candidates and team. Personally speaking, I feel like we all embrace a nice work-life balance. When I go on 1-2 week trips my team covers for me in a heartbeat and they respect the time that I’m away. We are a true work hard play hard environment filled with lots of fun and growth opportunities!
