We really appreciate your honest review! It means a lot to hear that our welcoming culture feels genuine to you - we try hard to keep things authentic and skip the corporate fluff. We're also glad that you are feeling valued when it comes to the compensation, benefits, and incredible people you get to work with. As for the cons you mentioned, we never want anyone on the team to feel like they have to work unsustainable hours or can't disconnect. We are moving fast and tackling a lot right now, but taking breaks and stepping away from the screen during the day is so important for your well-being. We don't want our fast pace to lead to burnout. Please don't hesitate to chat with your manager about your current bandwidth so they can help you prioritize and find a more sustainable daily balance. Thank you for your encouragement to the leadership team, and for all the hard work you put in!

Pros

Everything! Great pay, flexibility, and people. Everyone truly cares about you and your growth. If you want to learn, be challenged and grow in an incredibly healthy work environment, this is the place. I truly am so blessed to be working here and love my job everyday.

Cons

Health care plan is not the best but HSA provided by company helps. And overall it’s very cheap per month.

Pros

I absolutely love working at Forward Financing. The culture here is incredibly collaborative and kind, making it a great place to be. The pay and benefits are very competitive, and the flexible work options are a huge bonus. The company is constantly innovating, and I’ve been really impressed with how they're embracing new technology and AI. You won't be bored here, the work is genuinely challenging and pushes you to grow. One standout perk is the stipend for new parents, which helps with the financial costs of daycare, diapers, and formula. This is just one of many things the company does to show they're truly invested in their employees. Also, Forward Palooza is the most well-organized company event I’ve ever attended. It’s an amazing opportunity to meet everyone in person and get a clear, transparent view of the company’s direction. The content from the event clarifies what company trends mean for you personally, including your bonus and priorities. It’s a level of transparency that's incredibly refreshing.

Cons

Honestly, there aren't many downsides. Because the company is growing so fast, things can get fast-paced, but it’s always manageable. You might experience some growing pains with new processes and systems being put in place, but that’s pretty normal when a company is evolving like this, and the good news is you have amazing folks beside you providing support.

Creating an environment where people can collaborate, grow, and take on meaningful challenges is what we strive for every day - so it’s great to know that’s coming through. We’re especially glad you called out some of the moments and programs that make Forward unique, from our parental stipend to Forward Palooza - it’s always amazing to see how these experiences resonate. We also appreciate your perspective on the fast pace and evolution that come with growth. We know things move quickly here, and we’re continuously focused on keeping communication clear and providing the right support as we scale. Thanks again for being part of this journey and for helping us shape what’s next at Forward!
