Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about our work environment. We strive to provide a positive workplace and take your input seriously when shaping company policies. To clarify, our COO is married to an individual on the Proximity team, the two people that run the company are the CEO and COO and they are not married to each other. We pride ourselves on the positive feedback we receive from our employees on Proximity’s company culture. As a small company, we utilize fractional support to help with important business functions as we continue to grow and expand. Proximity is proud to partner with a modern Human Resources team for strategic HR services. Every employee at Proximity has complete and open access to confidential HR support. While Proximity is not headquartered in a very diverse area of Colorado, we have employed and currently do employ people who identify as minorities and are proud to have a staff that is 50% female. We value and continue to prioritize diversity on our team. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we are thankful for the time you have taken to leave this review.

Pros

Proximity is truly an awesome company. The culture of gratitude and inclusiveness, the intentional conversation around all issues (the fun ones and the tough ones), and caring about the entire employee (not just the 8am-9pm employee) is not only unique but wonderful. Even in a remote first atmosphere, it's inclusive.

Cons

It is a smaller team, so every so often you're wearing a few additional hats. However, it's handled with endless gratitude and you never feel taken advantage of.

Pros

Proximity is unlike any company I have ever worked for before. From day one I knew this place was different. The people are what make the company what it is. Everyone on the team is so supportive, inclusive, and willing to help each other out. It's really something special. A few examples: >> On Monday mornings we go 1x1 and update each other on what we did that weekend and what our top priorities are for the week >> We fill out a short "How Was Your Week?" survey every week that goes into a company-wide email where we give each other high-fives and shoutouts - it's heartwarming and makes me feel so good and appreciated >> At the end of the week we have a lunchtime send-off where we say how our week went and what we are doing this weekend ^^ In a hybrid/remote world, these things are really important and help me to stay connected to the team and get to know them better. There's no micromanaging. You're expected to do your job and do it well. Work-life balance is encouraged. And, the people are just COOL. They hike, they camp, they ski, they live in the mountains, they have chickens, they drink coffee, they love dogs, they are kind, they are caring, and they are wonderful humans. I'm honestly just so dang grateful I get to work for such a great company with such a welcoming culture. It makes all the difference in the world and makes me want to work hard. Love love love Proximity!

Cons

Small team, but, we are hiring!
