Pros
This is the most flexible job and extremely rewarding if you are engaged and care about your work. Everybody is so kind and willing to help. Some of the most intelligent and passionate people in the industry work here. If you want a job where you are encouraged to learn new things and try new things without fear of failure then there is no better place to work. Compensation is generous, benefits are the best you’ll ever have, and the CEO is down to earth, engaged, caring, and works harder than anybody you’ll ever meet. He isn’t one of those CEOs that sits back while you pad his pockets. He is available to guide and answer questions and is the epitome of a good, strong leader. I left for a job in the corporate world and the difference was astounding. I truly felt at home at InfusionPoints and I hope to one day return and finish out my career there. There are many opportunities to grow within your career and try new roles and tasks. Work/life balance and culture are wonderful. Gary (the CEO) will tell you he isn’t a clock watcher. Family and self-care are important and he understands that. I never had any problems taking off work to pick my kids up, go to school events, go on vacation, or anything like that. The most laid-back work culture in existence as long as everybody pulls their weight.
Cons
This place is NOT for you if you aren’t a self-starter. You have to be willing to put in the work and struggle and learn new things. If you just want to show up each day and be told exactly what to do and how to do it then this isn’t the job for you. You have to be excited and passionate about actively finding new solutions and coming up with new ideas for unique problems. You cannot shy away from problems and make the assumption that there is no solution just because it hasn’t been done before. I don’t consider any of these a con at all, but if you’re looking for a repetitive job where you can just do enough to get by you won’t be happy here. That’s not to say you are expected to do more than you are asked, because that isn’t the case at all, but you won’t find yourself just doing menial tasks all day. Each job is really important and valuable for the overall success of the team and that’s something to be proud of and excited about, but it isn’t for those who just want to be lazy.
