Avantages
Sharp Innovations has been one of the most positive work environments I've experienced in my career. Much of that has to do with the modalities and mentalities of the people who work here, and the leadership's hiring methods. I have witnessed the hiring process a few times, and I'm continually surprised by how much thought is put into hiring not just for someone's skills and talents but how well they will fit into the cohesive friendly work environment. Although Sharp has grown even in my time here, it's still a small team so everyone is here to pitch in, help answer questions, and solve problems, which has been great. While there isn't much overlap planning-wise between the three prime departments. (Development/Programming, Frontend/Backend design, and Marketing) Everyone is very open to external input regardless of where they fall on the org chart. This has been something I've highly valued. To that point, Sharp has been the first agency I've worked at where the talent and experience levels are high, and the egos are humble.
Inconvénients
Each team approaches various things in different ways. Causing some confusion as to who to tap when you need some help outside of your area of focus. (This is especially true for new employees.) While leadership is open to new ideas, it seems to me there is a slight bias against overhauling and implement new systems internally
