Great environment to engage and connect to people, and grow. The team leans into the Danny Meyer method of service and hospitality.

Always on. Not as much structured time for team building, and strategic growth.

Pros

- Fast-paced environment that encourages team members to be nimble and pivot which are important aspects of success in evolving businesses. - Problem-solving is a key aspect of the culture and workplace; The CEO mentioned the following words often: "don't get stopped" - which prompted me to think outside the box and is something I frequently think of. - Team members are not siloed to their "role" - they are given opportunities to work on projects across various functions and departments. - There is a good opportunity to network with the team and with the clients (members) in the space. It's a way to discover new, growing, and entrepreneurial organizations that you may not otherwise have exposure to. - Unlimited vacation time was a great perk. I was never made to feel guilty for using vacation time, and always felt encouraged to "recharge".

Cons

- Team members need to have a sense of "grace under pressure" as no two days are the same and can bring unique challenges that they may not immediately know how to handle.

Pros

Primary is a great place to sharpen/increase your hospitality experience and network/build relationships with entrepreneurs. All Luminaries, Community Managers and GMs are key contributors to the culture of Primary, you get to see the impact you have in clients right as they join the community. It's a small start up so they opportunities for career growth are limited but as the company grows, opportunities open up. You will always be challenged which to me is important.

Cons

It's a start up, benefits are okay (no 401k offered) and you work long hours (but that's most start ups...)
