Pros

The culture of the company is beyond compare to anything else out there. We're collaborative. And I'm not just saying that as a word to throw around. Here's how we're collaborative. If we need help from someone, we ping them on Skype, or set up an appointment, and they get on a call and help us through whatever it is - technical, functional, admin, you name it. We're learners - when someone is helping you, they do it from the core value we all share of learning and helping each other learn. It's important to us all. And we believe in doing what is best for the client - not ArcherPoint. The benefit of that as an employee (beyond the fact of us being employee owned and that bottom line investment) is that we work for happy clients. And if they're not happy we make it right. After spending 8 weeks away at another partner after having worked here for 10 years, I came back - and was warmly welcomed back. I must have gotten 15 emails welcoming me back before I even re-joined! We are family. And we have become an expert team. I share, everyone shares, and we operate like one big Dynamics NAV machine. It's an amazing thing. And even our internal Yammer site is used to collaborate. Go to our website and look for "Developers Digest" in the blogs. This content comes from our Yammer sharings. One thing I did not consider when leaving is how much I'd miss the culture. I found a place that pays more, but you cannot pay me to be that stressed out! When clients aren't given what they pay for, when team members are working over 100 hours a week to get ahead, when backstabbing and badmouthing are done, and everyone is disgruntled, it's stressful. And it's very stressful to take on a job and then be given a completely different job with only on the spot training. No one can achieve success like that. A good culture is worth so much to your daily job satisfaction. We built each other up - never tearing down (SERIOUSLY - we have a policy that prevents that stuff). And we do give feedback to help others achieve their goals. Yeah, I know it sounds like smoke and mirrors, but trust me...it's real. This IS the place to work as a NAV consultant or developer. You have my promise on that. And as an added bonus, we operate under Holocracy managment style. Go read up about it if you don't know about it - it is relatively new. The gist of it is this - you have a voice in everything that affects your job and how you do it. You also have a voice in how others do their job, and anything that affects you. Leadership listens. Things get done right. And opportunities to do other things are there.

Cons

Hmmm...let's see. If happy clients aren't your thing...that's gonna be a con. If being an employee owner, and boosting your retirement potential isn't what you're looking for, that's a con. If being able to reach out for expertise in areas you don't specialize is beyond your needs, I guess that could be a con. Let me tell you, after leaving, my eyes are opened. We may not make top base dollar salaries compared to others (not that it's lower than the norm, but some are higher). But with the commission system and being just 80% billable, you can make thousands more. If you're talking through this in recruitment, ask about it and get the numbers.

Wow, this is some really fantastic feedback! We're so glad you decided to come back to ArcherPoint. We firmly believe that our culture is really unlike any other. I'm certain there are other companies out there willing to throw money at people but there's clearly something to be said about work/life balance and loving what you do where you do it. Again, we're so thrilled to have you back on the team and cheers to many more years here at ArcherPoint!

Pros

Ability to work remote and good equipment.

Cons

Sales team is not aligned with delivery. Sales is allowed to say whatever it takes to make the sale then leave the delivery team holding the ball with non-realistic timelines and deliverables.

Pros

I work with like minded, talented people who are interested in becoming better at their craft. The environment is an honest, open place. Employee owners fell comfortable sharing all information in efforts to move forward and ultimately delight our clients more. Everyone cares for each other. We treat each other like human beings.

Cons

If you need a lot of direction, this may not be the place for you as everyone is self accountable for their role in the company. If you can be self motivated to get your work done, then this is a great place. If you want the opportunity to help in other areas of the company, outside of your core role, then this is a great place to work.

What wonderful feedback, thank you so much! We do agree that our environment and our culture are pretty unique and we appreciate the transparency and openness. I think you also hit it right on the nail with your thoughts around what can be challenging about working here. We strive to ensure everyone is getting the support they need but with our remote environment and our drive to become the best company out there, it does take a good amount of motivation! If you ever have any feedback or thoughts on that, let us know! Glad to have you here!
