Pros

-The best part of this company is the environment they've created and the talent they've hired. You work alongside bright people (young and old; fairly similar age range within positions) who you easily build relationships with -Great company functions -Easy to talk with and to upper management

Cons

These cons pertain to the Operations Department (they may have changed the department title to Customer Success or Customer Operations, but I wouldn't know since they don't communicate well): -They consistently execute internal plans that fail -They offer low pay that isn't competitive against comparable positions at other companies -They tell you that something will happen, but then something different actually happens without communication or explanation -Overall poor communication -Empty promises are often made -They don't value hard work or team leadership -They don't compensate well for demonstrated expertise within the position -They expect you to take on additional responsibility without any prior training

SPS Commerce Response

Thanks for your feedback and advice. As we have grown over the past few years, it has become ore difficult to keep the lines of communication as open and natural as they were when we were small. Our Global Voices survey also pointed out the need for better communications so we are working on this at the department and company levels. Please, if you have specific ideas, bring them to your manager or HR. We want to continually improve in this area.
