Growing pains - Avis employé Product Owner Plugable

Plugable has a positive culture that embraces work-life balance, encourages leadership qualities, and promotes individual decision making. I’ve never felt micromanaged. Management has a great way of lifting employees up and supporting. There’s also a lot of transparency behind decisions and initiatives. It’s nice to feel like you’re with a company, instead of just working for them.

Nothing worth complaining about, there’s always room for improvement but this is the best company I’ve ever worked for.

Small, friendly, and flexible office environment. Enough variety in tasks to avoid monotony. Good benefits for a small employer. Small team means meaningful opportunities to dive projects and get valuable experience. If you are good with abstract situations and finding your own way in a generalist role, this is a great place to work.

The health stipend vs is nice and a demonstration that the company and founder have your back, although not as compelling as a formal insurance plan. Combined with the lack of a formal retirement plan, it leads to a lot of uncertainty with unpredictable long term costs. Small team means you basically have to create any growth opportunities for yourself. If you want to develop specialized skills, it can be hard to stay focused given the generalist nature of the role.
