Disorganized - Research Team Leader marijuanadoctors.com Employee Review

Incredible executive team. They provide concise instructions and expectations for their team. Everyone knows what the expected KPIs are. And when you need help or encounter a problem, they are responsible to get you on track. Transparent communication from the executive team. A very positive (and productive) place to work. I love that we are doing so much good work in terms of educating consumers about physicians who assist with certified medical cannabis (licensing cardholders). And that the focus is on legitimate practitioners and dispensaries with integrity.

Sometimes the meetings go a little long. But the brainstorming sessions are fun and effective. When we latch on to a good idea, it's worth spending extra time on it. No complaints.

I have worked at marijuanadoctors.com for about 5 years now, and only have positive things to say about the company and the work environment. While it is true that they may not be just anybody's cup of tea, they are true to who they are, and the unconventional and alternative culture, are indicative of this. The work environment is fun, fast paced, and outside-the-box — and there are many opportunities available to all, willing to put in the time and do the work. Its also important to note that marijuanadoctors.com is a startup company, and startup company’s are NOT for everyone! A startup company, in itself comes with some ups and down. So, if you are looking for a “safe job”, then a startup isn’t for you! But if you are looking for a creative atmosphere that is electric with never-ending possibilities, and are the kind of person who jumps into help at every opportunity, then this is definitely a company that you can grow with. The upside to working at marijuanadoctors.com is that we are a family, first and foremost!! Our core unit of dedicated and hardworking individuals, are thoughtfully taken care at every available opportunity — important to mention, because while a startup operates on limited funds, the family aspect and open door policy ensures that if any 1 of us has a problem, personal or other, management does every thing they can, to help fix it for the better. I initially started at marijuanadoctors.com in the customer call center, fielding incoming calls from patients in need — a job that I found to be an extremely humbling process, and believe that its a position that anyone coming into the company should begin with, as it not only gives you a human feeling for what we are doing here, but also teaches you about every aspect of our service. I then transitioned into the role of content writer, and in addition to writing online content and company press releases, I also manage our company newsletter and social media presence. As an employee, I have always been paid, and paid in a timely manner. I have attended industry events and festivals, on the expense of the company, and have received financial bonus’s for working on particular projects — work that again extended past the lines of my job description, but thats what a startup is all about! After all, GOOGLE didn’t start off as the google we all know today, it too, had humble beginnings.

Like I said, startups aren't for just anyone, it takes a unique kind of individual to succeed in a startup. If you are looking for job stability and regularity, then this isn't the fit for you. Also, it is important to mention that in addition to being a startup, marijuanadoctors.com is also a company in the up-and-coming medical cannabis industry, which may again, appeal to some but not others. If your views do not support medical marijuana and it’s patients, then marijuanadoctors.com is not for you. However, if you understand the medical benefit, and support the medical use of marijuana, then marijuanadoctors.com is just the home for you.
