Pros

The Pros are that the shifts that are posted are a really good wage most of the time you get to make your own schedule as you should if you're considered self-employed

Cons

And there are no benefits at all whatsoever no overtime no health insurance shift key states that they are a platform and they do not provide that but it makes it kind of confusing because they take money out of your check for accidental insurance without letting you know they also for attendance and can drop you off there platform act like your employer and be labeled in a line such as your employer but are not obligated to act as a company instead we are self employed very confusing to me it just sounds like the way out of having to take care of obligations money as a company as an employer

Pros

Work remote; pay; flex time off. Neat product design ecosystem and the design system looks good in a portfolio. It seemed like things were improving with how goals were set and worked towards. While the design team existed, the culture was at first good then turned sour due to the constant threats of layoffs, lack of promotion, and limited raises.

Cons

Constant layoffs; every time a new C-level came in heads would roll. There were 4 different heads of product and 4 CTOs in the few years I worked there. Very concerning for any company. Goals constantly changing... no or very limited growth on the career ladder for designers. The design team no longer exists here. If they are hiring for this role, they have realized their mistake and are clambering to rebuild. Take this lack of stability into consideration when you negotiate your offer.
