Pluspunten

I came in after new leadership was instituted in early 2017 and it has been a wonderful experience since. It's definitely a "young" feel (most employees are in their mid-twenties) and the culture is absolutely one of positivity. I'm always amazed at the sheer talent of those around me and the management is fairly laid back because most of us are self-starters. One other aspect I love about working for a smaller company (50ish employees) is the ability to get involved in all areas of the business (if you choose) and then see your impact immediately. Management is supportive of your career goals and if you show interest in something other than your core work I have found nothing other than support. If you want to get involved with something after hours Meta also has gatherings for Pathfinder (think D&D), book club, game night or happy hour.

Minpunten

While the culture is great and my co-workers are amazingly talented we do support an aging software. That's not to say it isn't powerful but it can be difficult to support across a broad range of clientele because of some of the customizations made prior. To that end, Meta has adjusted how upgrades are rolled out and significant improvements have been made since I began.

The work environment is a great place to learn the basics of a company's operations and working in an office. The internship was very helpful in developing my professional communication skills and comfortability within an office space. The hours were very flexible and the pay was good. Good learning space for interns and questions are encouraged. I was able to collaborate with almost every department of the company for a well-rounded learning experience.

Minpunten

It is right in the downtown Iowa City area, so I ended up eating out a lot at the local restaurants.

I'm a long-time former employee, and had I not decided to pursue my passions outside the software industry I would very likely be back at MetaCommunications. I've seen how a lot of companies function, and have owned/operated my own business as well. And from that perspective I can say MetaCommunications is a great place to work. Sure...they had some growing pains in the early years, but what company doesn't?

Minpunten

I don't really have any Cons...but maybe a word of advice. If you have the drive and desire, and want the opportunity to become the best at what you do - whether it's programming, support, professional services, sales, marketing, or whatever - then MetaCommunications is a fantastic environment. If you want to become a true professional in your career, MetaCommunications is the place for you. If you are simply looking for a "job" where you come to work, put your time in, and nothing further with no real true ambitions or desires, then MetaCommunications may not be for you. And I say that for both your and the company's benefit. Seriously - look inside yourself, do some soul searching, and ask yourself what it is you really want to achieve in your professional career - if you have the inner passion, drive, and desire, then MetaCommunications will help you achieve it.
