Pros

There are so many things that I like about working at Istonish: 1. I really value the balance between guidance in what is expected of me in doing my job and the ability to innovate and add my expertise into the work I do for Istonish and our clients. 2. No one has ever stopped me in my tracks and said "We don't do it that way here" when I've proposed a new idea. There is always an openness to talk about new ideas, and sometimes I get the green light, sometimes it's back to the drawing board. I'm good with that because management took the time to listen to me. 3. I love the physical office environment. I think Isonish has created an amazing space to come to work everyday...and paid attention to designing an environment that promotes collaboration and working together...which is important to the work that we do. 4. Istonish creates an opportunity for you to grow and evolve your knowledge and skills. It does mean that you might feel stretched and pulled because you're doing your job and learning new stuff at the same time...but for me personally I love that opportunity to keep growing and have impact. 5. I have deep respect for the CEO and her leadership. I think she creates an environment of opportunity and holds people accountable for their roles and responsibilities. She asks really good questions...and I have often observed that she can see things before others can, and sometimes it's hard for people who have one point of view to be able to shift and consider that what she is saying is accurate. I have been in these conversations with her and I have always felt that she was respectful to my point of view and that her perspective helped me to consider other possibilities. I think that's really cool. 6. The last thing I will say that I really appreciate is the attitude of support for me beyond just being an employee. I appreciate their interest and understanding of the need for work life balance. There's a lot more that I like about working at Isonish...but I

Cons

Istonish is in a fast paced and continuously evolving business of technology. There is always something new coming at you and at times it feels like there is just not enough time. I think this is just a fact of working in the technology space and that it exists in every company who plays in this sandbox. Because Istonish is a smaller company I think it feels a more intense and demanding. Some might see this as a con...personally I see it as an opportunity. So I think it's just what you choose to make of it.

Thank you for taking the time to share this so thoughtfully. Reviews like this one remind us why we invest so much in building a culture where people feel heard, challenged, and supported. The point about the pace of technology being intense at a smaller company is well put — and we love that you see it as opportunity rather than obstacle. That mindset is exactly what makes a great team. We're grateful to have people like you with us.

Pros

Fully remote but not much else is good about this company

Cons

Owner will ask you to do things that are dishonest. Talk badly about people when they are out on Medical Leave and has no business managing people. Stay far away from Istonish - President left in a blaze of glory solely because of the CEO’s horrible treatment of others.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We take all feedback seriously, and we're sorry your time at Istonish didn't reflect the culture we work hard to build — one grounded in respect, transparency, and care for our people. The characterizations here don't align with our values or how we lead, but we recognize that when someone leaves with hurt feelings, their experience is real to them. We wish you well, and we're always open to a direct conversation with anyone who has concerns they'd like to work through. — Istonish Management
