Ventajas

The employees at ClickTime are nice and the physical location of the company is convenient to commute to. There are plenty of restaurants and bars around the area to go to for lunch or happy hour.

Desventajas

Where do I start? This company REALLY pinches every penny. Some employees are using computers that are 6 years old. The CEO would have to sign off on any purchase that was over $100. There is definitely a "inner circle" of those who suck up to management and get what they want. One employee waited over a year for a sit/stand station where a more senior employee in the "inner circle" got one approximately a month after working there. It is unacceptable to play favorites when ergonomics come into play. As far as technology goes, the stack is very old and it doesn't seem like it will be modernized anytime soon. There is not much to learn as far as Information Technology goes at this company. The main webpage looks modern, but once you log in, the app looks like it was built in the 90's. If you are applying for a Systems Administrator role, be prepared to do some desktop support. The facilities are very poorly maintained - I have seen people have to buy their own soap to put in the bathroom because the building doesn't take care of the restrooms. The company shares its office (and even some IT equipment) with Mann Consulting, ClickTime's parent company. There was very little office space for ClickTime despite the fact that Mann Consulting employees are rarely in the office. At one point, the company stuffed six interns into a single office because of the lack of office space. The recruiter at ClickTime once told me that some job postings are completely fabricated just to give the illusion of growth to the public. It is not okay to waste people's time who are looking for a legitimate job because you want to make it seem like the company is growing very rapidly. There was a two month probationary period before you get any sort of benefits and an even longer wait before you can start a 401k.

Thanks for your feedback about your ClickTime experience. We’re a small, bootstrapped company and we freely admit that this environment doesn't suit everyone. Without the depth of resources of a venture-backed or large company, we rely on our employees to wear multiple hats, be creative, and be mindful of our bottom line. We regret that these points weren't made more clear during your interview process, and will make sure we better select for these qualities as we continue to grow. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and best wishes in your future pursuits.

Ventajas

Leadership that cares, clear vision about the direction of the company, flexibility with high standards. A remote-first company that manages to stay really collaborative and cross-functional. So grateful I had the chance to start my career in tech here - learned so much from all the leaders, and coworkers. I had the chance to develop skills, propose and complete projects somewhat outside of the scope of my role, and was encouraged to experiment and innovate with AI.

Desventajas

If you care about rapid title advancement, may not be the place for you. BUT, if learning + impact is your priority, it's an awesome company to be a part of.
