Pluspunten

Despite nearly doubling their workforce while I was there, Bison remains a very lean company with little room for residual talent. This means that every Bison employee is trusted with significant responsibility, in all departments, and given the freedom (within reason) to complete tasks with a fair degree of creative autonomy. You will not be micromanaged, you will not be pigeonholed to a few routine assignments, you will not get bored at 3 p.m. everyday. This is a hungry company that diligently identifies culture/role fit during the hiring process and trusts their employees to be dedicated to the same vision and future outlined by management. If you're looking for "1 year until Associate, 2 years until Senior Associate, 4 years until VP, etc..." look elsewhere. Sure, the climb is less defined, but you're treated like a Partner on day 1.

Minpunten

In my opinion, we spent a frustrating amount of time on ill advised sales techniques with gelatinous messaging. In an effort to innovate and attack product market fit, we fell into gray area value propositions with unthought out angles. Disclaimer: This is not the case today but I would be wary about decision making that can feel like blind darts.

Pluspunten

On the software development team, Bison brings massive real-world experience to newer developers who might otherwise spend many more years getting up to speed. Team keywords are "open, collaborative, and supportive", and it's not just an empty mission statement. Proof is in high retention, low churn, on the dev team and elsewhere. Those of us who have been working for a few years can look back at former jobs/companies and identify those few which have stood out as "the good old days"—where we learned things and met people that impacted us for the rest of our careers. That's going on now, here at Bison, even if many on the team are too early in their work lives to recognize it yet!

Minpunten

Bison took a few years to get to market-value fit. We chased some dead ends, and we operate in an industry which can at times move frustratingly slowly. "Growing up" took some time, but we got there.
