Pros
I am excited to share with the world that Unicorns do exist! They live at Modern Tribe. Modern Tribe is unlike any other organization I've been a part of during the ten years of my career journey. The core of the humbleness, supportive teamwork mentality, energetic atmosphere (even remotely), and quality of work that leads this company is truly due to three Partners. The individuals at Tribe are some of the most welcoming, thoughtful, light-hearted, intelligent, and creative people I've been exposed to. They are truly building a remarkable tribe. Did I mention this Unicorn also allows you to work remotely!? The company is fully distributed and it's amazing. I don't know how they do it, but I feel a part of a team just as much as I did going into the office for years. I got to a point in my personal and professional life where I was less focused on the amount of money I made and instead put my personal happiness first, along with being a part of something bigger. Quality vs. quantity. Recently, I calculated the minimum hours Modern Tribe has given back to me in time. The number totaled 1,305 hours. Approximately five hours each day and 54 more days a year where I can choose to do the things I love and spend time with those who mean the most to me. Oh yeah, and if I wanted to go work from Hawaii for a few months, I could without my company questioning me, paperwork, or guilt. Actually, my team would encourage it if this were something I wanted to do and enjoyed! The people - the people make up this amazing, wonderful, awesome Unicorn of a company. Couldn't be more happy and confident with my decision to learn more about Tribe, apply, and become a part of their team.
Cons
The company is in a stage of growth where there are just enough employees that benefits offered by other large companies are becoming a reality. Health insurance, 401k, and paid national holidays are on the horizon, but not quite available to employees. However, the company is generous with PTO (25 days the first year) and also offers a great HRA reimbursement program for health-related costs. I'm not sure I would even consider this a con, considering the leaders are proactively researching options for their tribe family.
