Pros

Intelligent, caring, and all around great people to work with. Wonderful culture. Great opportunities to try new things and explore e-commerce.

Cons

Sometimes unrealistic expectations, particularly with revenue projections. Culture can be 'too nice' but make it difficult to have transparent conversations about issues.

Pros

I love the culture of the company. Everyone is very friendly and caring, but at the same time everyone is a hard worker. It's difficult to see this balance, and the company has managed to achieve it!

Cons

Still small/medium company, so growing pains are common. No profit sharing or equity for employees.
