If you join the client side of the company, be aware that you will most certainly encounter clients that are not at all tech savvy—patience is key. APPrise works with a lot of really well known companies and the downside to that is that many still work with antiquated technology systems. Luckily, theEMPLOYEEapp was built to be very easy to use, so it won't be a major issue.
The VC funding the company felt a bit overbearing at times, and while the acquisition was exciting at first, I found it to be a strange choice in end considering how it netted out. I would have strongly preferred that the founder didn't get cut out of the company, as he brought a lot of life and passion to the office, but I understand the choice from a business strategy standpoint—just understand that it rubbed many people the wrong way.
Like all startups, there are some growing pains, but overall, I loved my experience working at APPrise and recommend it to anyone passionate about the space!
