Pros

People are really excited about the work that we do. There's a lot of transparency on what we are doing and why and the decisions that are made, and why, across all departments and roles. Even in the most stressful times, it hasn't felt like a grind and I have always enjoyed coming in every day. The company has grown and is continuing to grow. This is really cool to see and be a part of, and this has given people a lot of opportunities. I think things will continue to focus on personal growth.

Cons

- It can be chaotic and it moves quickly - if you thrive in that kind of situation, this isn't a con. - Open floor plan can be loud - Work/life balance can be tough, but it's what you make it. I've also seen this be a huge Pro, so I do think this is what you make it. You can choose to be a workaholic or figure out how to balance doing good work and taking time for yourself and family and ShipStation will help.

Pros

The work from home option is great, they do provide free snacks and drinks and a catered lunch once a week. Sometimes the workload can be really light. Most of the people working there were great

Cons

Owned by private equity, so the annual mass layoffs are very real, They will mass fire people and then outsource the jobs over seas. Expectation of taking ownership of projects without equitable pay for the responsibilities taken on. Sometimes the workload can be unbearable. I worked there when it was still a startup company, So I witnessed the company culture dive off of a cliff after the PE acquisition. Upper management is very fake and everything is about pushing more and more sales. The quality of the product has deteriorated, while more features have been added, there are more bugs and less people to fix them, all while the company continues to raise their prices. Managers tend to be promoted or moved from different sister companies, because they are "good managers" but then they know nothing about the platform they are managing, so they end up not being able to assist the employees they are managing
