Great culture with tons of room for professional growth
|
|
I had a truly fantastic experience working at MindSumo for 4 and a half years. I wore a ton of hats. Given the size of the company, the number of clients and level of user activity are very high. This leaves anyone working there with a huge opportunity to try new things and practice professional skills.
|
It's a small/lean company, so new roles and opportunities don't appear often.

A fantastic company that cares about you
|
|
This is a rare company that has a product you can sell with conviction, a leadership team who supports you, and a group of coworkers who you will think of as friends. If you're smart, talented, and hardworking, you'll find the opportunity to make a role for yourself at MindSumo.
|
It's a small startup, so it's not for people who want the traditional corporate culture.

Great communication, room to grow
|
|
Freedom to experiment in your job, relaxed atmosphere, lots of room for growth, very little separation between founders and employees.
|
Benefits packages are less enticing than in public sector or more established corporate world, but could be more of a pay off in the end.

Founding Sales Employee
|
|
Amazing people to be around, everyone is very motivated, intelligent, and empathetic. Very flat structure - there's a 100% chance you'll be sitting across from one of the Founders! (cool exposure)
Roles are super autonomous and flexible, and being able to not only grow within the role, but evolve the role with my personal professional goals has been a great benefit and core reason for my tenure.
MindSumo's mission resonates strongly throughout both the org and individuals within - everyone is aligned and keen on leveling the employment playing field for bright young passionate students.
Excellent work-life balance when compared to Bay Area Startups
|
Startup culture means often times there is little precedent, framework, or guidance towards completing goals.
Compensation is competitive, but not many "perks" when compared to other Bay Area startups

Great experience with a small, smart, and passionate team
|
|
I spent over 4 years at MindSumo, as one of about a 10 team members at any given time. The size of the company is one of it's greatest strengths, allowing any individual to take on a variety of interesting projects while collaborating with all members of the team.
I was fairly compensated for filling a variety of roles within the company and only left for an opportunity to travel that I couldn't pass up.
|
The team being small means there's little opportunity to "move up". This is not entirely a negative as it means any give employee will fulfill critical functions for the company and have the opportunity to build extremely valuable resume experience during their time at MindSumo.

Marketing Manager

MindSumo is the most supportive and collaborative environment I have ever worked in. The entire team is dedicated to helping you succeed, and I truly feel that someone always has my back. It is also a very dynamic work environment where you have a lot of autonomy and freedom to run with your ideas. For people who prefer structure this can be a bit scary but for others like myself that thrive in change and experimentation, this company is perfect.
|
Just being resource constrained as a small startup. When you have one or two people instead of an entire team available, it can be challenging to prioritize and get bigger projects that have a long timeline completed.

Great
|
|
- Made $7200 USD which translates to nearly $10000 Canadian. Pretty good for part time contract work in university.
- They have contracts from some great companies, many of which you would know.
- If you are new, 50% of people win something, so you won't go away empty handed.
- Strong range of different contests, so there is something for everyone.
|
- Interesting new concepts seem to lack follow through while time is spent on cosmetic changes to the website. They get set up and then are seemingly abandoned. Can get a bit repetitive in terms of the challenges as well.
