The good, the bad and the ugly - Sales Workzone Employee Review

The team at Workzone is a very talented, intelligent and accepting team that values individualism and work/life balance. Having the opportunity and resources in place to work remotely is extremely valuable, especially since I have recently welcomed my first child. The company holds a really high regard for customer support and training, which helps form great customer relationships, and gives me a sense of pride in my role here. The software itself is a great PM solution and the CEO is always open to employee and customer feedback, which helps our product constantly evolve to meet our customers needs.

Although working remotely is one of the greatest perks of this job, it can also be one of the cons, in the sense that it can prevent relationships from being formed, especially between the sales and support teams.

The small business "family" vibe really grows on you, but it can feel unreal at first.  The pay is very competitive, the ability to work remotely is wonderful, performance bonuses are nice, and competitive benefits.  They have free snacks and drinks available regularly and they even installed a charging station for an employee who has an electric car!  The director of my department has been great during my tenure and always makes himself available for questions, concerns, and guidance.  He listens to and values our opinions even when they run contrary to his.  It really feels like a team effort on a daily basis.   There are new challenges almost every day, so you never get bored.  Management recognizes that this can be a fast paced work environment at times and encourages taking time off to refresh and avoid burnout.  They make you feel valued as a contributor to the company and as a human being.

The bathrooms are always kept clean and fully operational, but there is very little sound proofing and no fans.  The parking lot can be a hassle on days when a majority of our employees are in the office for meetings.
