Continually Fostering Career Growth & Autonomy - Account Executive Stax Bill Employee Review

- A Genuine family-first mentality. The founding executives are always there for their employees, and do a good job of being transparent. - The product owners care passionately about what they're building, and the application's diverse functionality is truly astonishing. - The engineering team is slim but provide exceptional output, and are genuinely good and caring people to work with. - There is an opportunity to learn so much, achieve a great deal of personal development, and dive into a lot of really interesting initiatives. - It's a fun company with that offers competitive salaries and comprehensive health benefits. - The company are targeting exponential growth while keeping overheads down, especially during the pandemic, which gives the company a stable outlook.

- As a mature start-up, there is a need to keep the team fast and slim, while satisfying a lot of internal and external expectations. This can lead to a lot of pressure to succeed, even when the path forward is not necessarily clear. However this is not that unusual for a technology company, so it's not necessarily a con, but it can be alarming when employees that aren't performing to expectation aren't retained (not necessarily a con either). - The company could really use more admin/HR staff to streamline day-to-day employee needs, but I think this was in the pipeline when I left.

It's really cool being part of a lean team punching above its weight in the billing space and still win deals. The people that make up the org, as well as those that are directly in charge of leading it are all quality people that make the fight a good one. There are opportunities to grow with the billing organization, as well as within the context of the larger Stax Payments organization which can offer some interesting flexibility in one's career.

The full integration of Stax Bill to the rest of the Stax Payments platform is still an ongoing process and so has some of the growing pains that come along with that, particularly having a smaller team that can only output so much, while having some rigidity in overall strategy due to being part of a larger organization - which is sometimes tough to contend with. But leadership does a good job of navigating the team though it and I always felt like middle ground could be found.
