Pros

Valuable and timeless concept; pay is usually higher in comparison to other start ups in seattle; beautiful building and location.

Cons

Lacks strong leadership- the current leaders are so weak and mediocre that have failed to earn respect and therefore allow poor performers to continue collecting a paycheck and distracting and demotivating those who truly care for the company and want to be there for the long haul. That is one of the reasons why many outstanding employees have left because that environment seems a joke- If Nick (CEO) really knew what happens down at that level he’d be disgusted too. Many of these one trick pony’s employees are there to party, eat all the snack and drink-technically living up to the “Life at OfferUp” hiring campaign they were once attracted to and fortunately for them , it didn’t disappoint . Work and what an employee is hired to do becomes the least of their priorities!
