Pros
I love everything about working at Patagonia, from the company mission and our passionate, humble founders to our inspiring, genuine, kind CEO and my incredible coworkers. I believe in the great products we make, the organizations and campaigns we support, and overall the work that we do. Other great things are that we have a daycare on site and the sounds of kids laughing and playing sometimes make you forget you're at work. We have yoga and pilates classes at lunch and after work, great food, plus the beach is a short walk away. Since people are happy working here, it makes for a very fun, productive, friendly work environment. And Ventura is a diamond in the rough of SoCal. It has amazing surf, beautiful mountains with rock climbing, road and mountain biking, and hiking, and the Channel Islands are a beautiful place to explore. Also, the company is growing which makes for great career opportunities. I'm sure some people may not like that because there are certainly things that change with growth, but it's fun working somewhere that is thriving and doing good with the money the company earns.
Cons
I wish we had more vacation time, but there is some flexibility in most positions which makes up for it. Plus, after a year you can take an environmental internship and volunteer while traveling!
