Pros

I've never had a job where I enjoy going to work every day and seeing everyone I work with, until ShipStation. The work environment is great (startup), and benefits are awesome. Management is very approachable and always willing to help. They provide you with a Macbook and your own Geek Desk so you can stand while you work. They encourage us to order snacks and beverages every week, which is all free. ShipStation also feeds us at least once a week and gives us beer on Fridays! Oh, and the support/sales teams get to shoot nerf gun darts every Friday for cash. There is also a lot of opportunity for growth if you work hard. They really look for people who are self-motivated and think outside the box. The company is growing really fast so new positions do become available. They typically promote from within as well.

Cons

The volume of work is a bit intense. I think some people feel that they are overworked and/or underappreciated. It's part of working in the customer service industry though. I'll take being busy over being bored any day.

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
