Pros

I've been working at SharkNinja for over 4 years. I used to say that the company was really innovative - we have great products! But now I say that the company is a LOT OF FUN, too! Team members get to actively participate in new product launches and focus groups regardless of which department you work in. This summer, we had Foodtruck Fridays, Ice Cream Thursdays and we are having a product launch celebration day at Fenway! If you like to get involved, there is a lot of opportunity to engage with coworkers from across the business and everyone genuinely enjoys the camaraderie that exists within the company. We are expanding globally and that is really exciting too!

Cons

It is EXTREMELY fast paced. The company changes very quickly and you have to be comfortable with this type of environment. SharkNinja is the type of company that is never satisfied with "status quo". To be successful, you have to be very comfortable always challenging your thinking and elevating what you deliver.

Pros

Some good peers that make the days slightly bearable with the group chat of how ridiculous and hellish the place is

Cons

The speed and agility are just code names for ceo paranoia and inability to make and stick to decisions. Toxic environment perpetuated by the lifers. Entire departments are pit against each other. A culture of public shaming and blaming with a side of discrimination and misogyny. It is absolute chaos and makes you regress professionally because after a while all you do is “yes” the ceo and do things the Shark way which is essentially the Mark way and 0% what other orgs would do or what you learned about/experienced previously. Micromanaging starts from the very top. Product issues daily. People cry daily. Ridiculously high turnover. So much bullying and favoritism. Extremely top heavy and lots of VPs+ to attend meetings but not enough people to actually work. Those in leadership are also unprofessional and liabilities. No work life balance. No respect. Backstabby. Even the meeting are aggressive and called hacks, red teams, sledge hammer approach etc. The best way to be successful here is to be a super caffeinated visible sycophant that is fine with no life outside of work. People note the high comp but it’s not worth it and is not enough compared to the hours actually worked and all the stress and anxiety that comes with it. The moral and mental health here are the lowest I’ve ever seen.
