There have been drastic improvements over the last few years to increase internal training (across all teams) and break down the silos amongst teams. Our internal communication has grown tremendously over the last few years and it shows!! Working in a face paced environment is where I thrive so this is the perfect place if you thrive in those types of environments too! Everyone is so helpful and has each others backs at the end of the day. There are years of knowledge spread across the teams so lots of resources at everyone’s disposal. I have never feel more “at home” than I do here. The atmosphere is a comfortable friendly environment where you can banter professionally and express concerns openly without judgment. Managers listen to their employees concerns & life hardships.

This is currently an improvement being worked on so not necessarily a con but the lack of internal written knowledge is challenging for some at times but is growing more and more robust!

Really positive and encouraging environment. Managers are invested in their teams. Ownership is hands on with building an organization people are excited and proud to be part of.

It’s growing so things move and change fast. Some people are energized by this but it can get overwhelming for others depends on what you like and your personality and work style. Personally I love it.

Checkwriters does a good job at welcoming new employees. They put systems in place where you are able to meet new co-workers, and quite frankly very nice people. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, and I love the building.
Minpunten
A company that is family operated has its quirks. There is always going to be a bit of favoritism, and a bit of a "strong" view on things. Checkwriters is far beyond that. Department relations are not good, and any ideas that differ from the family's get you shut down, and some times in trouble. Many projects are left unfinished because a family member jumps in last minute. People walk on eggshells in the office because of fear of judgment. It is a scary operation to be a part of. They preach about equity and connection, but in reality, they don't practice it. Even despite guidelines they claim to adhere to. The higher-ups run a Youtube podcast where they praise companies that perform massive lay-offs, strip away DEI, and require on-site work. Oh yeah, be afraid to work remotely. They let you, but you will often hear about how you are not as valued (just listen to the podcast).
