Pros

Forward is always striving to create a workplace environment that encourages feedback in all departments. They value their employees' opinions and many of the high-level ideas come from the employees in the trenches doing the work. Forward always is transparent with new initiatives, delivering news (good or bad), and keeps their employees afloat on important company metrics. Although at times things can get busy, managers and senior leadership stress the importance of work-life balance and taking time off. The people and culture team is highly committed to planning fun activities and social gatherings for the employees at Forward to take part in and they never miss a beat. The people and culture team along with the rest of the team at Forward really make new hires feel special, included, and completely prepared for their role through the onboarding and training process. Above all else, I value the friendships and relationships that I have built since being here at Forward. People go out of their way to connect with and help fellow colleagues. I highly recommend anyone to work at Forward!

Cons

We are thrilled to hear that you feel valued as a team member! At Forward, our people are our greatest asset. It's a top priority for us to support our employees from the moment they join the team through our culture, development opportunities, benefits, work environment, and perks. We take great pride in "Keeping it Real" as a team and are intentional about cultivating a culture that we think is special and unique. We want our team members to be excited to log on to work in the morning and bring the best version of themselves. Like any company, our days can get busy, but team members are encouraged to take time off, work from whatever location they choose, and flex their hours as needed. Thanks for sharing your feedback and for being a part of the Forward team!

Pros

Top-Tier Compensation & Resources: The company pays very well and genuinely invests in its employees by providing excellent resources to help us succeed. Incredible Culture & Team: My coworkers and team members are amazing, hardworking, and deeply dedicated. There is a strong sense of camaraderie, and we do truly meaningful work together every day. Fantastic Remote Environment: The remote work setup is seamless and highly effective, making it a wonderful place to work from anywhere. Rewarding Leadership: As a manager, it is incredibly fulfilling to support my team, solve problems for our customers, and cross the finish line on major tasks. I feel genuinely lucky to be a part of this organization.

Cons

Learning Curve & Operational Complexity: The environment is very fast-paced, and the product itself is highly complex. It takes a significant amount of time to learn the ins and outs, which naturally makes managing the operations space a bit challenging. Heavy Manual Workload: There are a lot of manual reviews required, which can lead to an increased workload for managers. Growing Pains: Right now, there is a lot of reliance on "tribal knowledge" and navigating gray areas. As the company continues to expand, leadership will need to prioritize building more standardized, scalable processes to ease the operational burden.
