Pros

Mission-Driven Leadership: The executive team (including Ryan, Stu & Gopi) is deeply committed to a clear vision of "Speed in the Right Direction". The recent Velocity summit in Vietnam highlighted a leadership team that is accessible and transparent about both our growth (like the 44% YoY growth in Vietnam) and our challenges. Emphasis on Trust and Reliability: There is a refreshing shift away from just "brilliant tech" toward being the most reliable partner for our customers. The "Trust Equation" (Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy / Self-Interest) is becoming the standard for how we operate daily. Global Expansion & Scale: It's an exciting time to be here as we expand our physical footprint. Moving from "grey areas" to having a presence in over 50 global offices (across NAM, EMEA, and APAC) shows the company’s massive scale and commitment to owning the network. Innovation that Solves Real Problems: We aren't just building tools; we are building a "Control Tower" that optimizes inventory, reduces costs, and provides a true one-stop-shop for supply chains.

Cons

maybe these are more challenges based on what we learned: Pace of Change. Moving at "Velocity" is exhilarating but requires a high level of resilience. Because we are constantly iterating on our global network and product suite, team members must be comfortable with frequent shifts in priority to stay aligned. Operational Complexity. As we expand into new markets (like the 118% growth in Cambodia, or EU growth of Fulfillment), there is a constant need to ensure our internal processes keep up with our physical growth.

Pros

Lots of really smart and nice people at the company. The culture has improved a lot recently. There's a good amount of room to develop and jump on things that you might not be exposed to in other companies.

Cons

The company moves a little too fast at times and maybe overlooks things that are working well and don't necessarily need to be changed for "efficiency" at the risk of doing things incorrectly. It can be hard to move up in some departments. work/life balance varies a lot by team.
