Pluspunten
Relish is uniquely positioned as a strategic partner and innovation department for a multi-billion dollar parent company. The leadership and team have earned the trust of this organization over the past six years by delivering quality work and creating value. As I have grown in my career, although hard to quantify, this impact is something I've become incredibly proud of. The relationship Relish has built with its stakeholders allows for a lot of flexibility in how work is accomplished, and the team is even responsible for determining which problems are most important to solve. I highly value the level of trust and autonomy I experience at Relish, which has been unparalleled elsewhere in my career. Team members at all levels have incredible exposure to parent co's executive leadership and are given the chance to voice their opinions and expertise. The team at Relish is small, nimble, and full of creative employees who care about making an impact with the work they do, and they're a delight to work with. The work-life balance is also quite good; team leads and directors are considerate about work load, deadlines are created thoughtfully, and managers are accommodating when it comes to time off.
Minpunten
Relish is a small to medium sized team, designed to operate like a startup where possible, so if formality and strict process is your preferred way of operating, this may not be the right fit. The organization is intentionally flat, and lacks a strong hierarchy, which can be frustrating for some. However, there is a plethora of opportunity and chances to grow and learn in many different ways, if you're looking for it. Opportunities for career growth do exist and can be created but may not be presented on a regular cadence in a traditional path. Work is project based, focused on the foodservice industry, and often involves a lot of corporate communication – this may not sound interesting, fulfilling, or flashy to some, but I believe there is value to be found here.
