Avantages
Intapp is growing which undoubtedly comes with pain points but also many opportunities to lead and grow.
Since I joined 1.5 years ago, I've been proud to see leadership continue to be humble and understand their shortcomings and commit to hiring strategic leadership to help Intapp scale in a healthy, competitive, and thoughtful way.
We moved to a beautiful new office with lounge areas stocked with games, ping pong, and foosball. We also enjoy WeWork perks and our continued free lunch on Wednesdays (always so yummy - I personally am thrilled when we get a Sushi buffet a few times a year). Our kitchens are always stocked with Fruit, Bagels & Bread, Drinks, and Snacks galore (healthy and yummy), Fruit Infused Water.
One of the things I'm most proud of at my time at Intapp is helping to strategically grow my team and my career. I started as a contractor in an entry-level role and within 6 months I took on additional responsibilities which led to the need to split the job into two unique roles. Now, I am thrilled to be in the process of starting another new role that will help me develop a whole new set of skills. I feel like Intapp is investing in me and my growth because they care about internal mobility and growth and I've shown my dedication to improving what I can when I can and driving projects forward no matter the obstacles. Inch by inch you will succeed!
Something I really value about Intapp leadership is that they will listen to your concerns and ideas. If you show them a need that isn't being met and propose solutions, they will do their best to address them or give you the autonomy to take action with their support.
An example of my experience with this is: After I converted from a contractor to a regular employee, I took on additional responsibilities and I started to get burnt out and overwhelmed because the volume of work was simply too much for one person to handle successfully for any long period of time.
I brought up my concerns to my manager and a plan to hire a contractor to help carry the load was executed a few short weeks after I voiced my concerns. Now we are working to make that contractor a permanent employee too. This experience reinforced my desire to stay and grow at Intapp long-term. It's an incredible feeling for your managers and leaders to hear your concerns and respond with logical action and empathy. You can and should tell them if they missed the mark without fear of retaliation. Having some patience is needed to be successful at Intapp, but it will pay off. Ask questions before assuming things and be prepared for ambiguity and things to change.
Inconvénients
- Things may not happen as quickly as you'd like, but don't worry you are not being ignored. Talk to your manager to understand what is possible now and what may need to wait for future resources.
-I'm now comfortable with ambiguity and changing timelines so this doesn't bother me, but if you crave perfect company-wide processes and highly structured environments where you are always given exact instructions to execute with little opportunity to add creative input, then we might not be the best fit for you while we are still growing and learning.
