Pros

The company is run by honest, hardworking people. The product is truly loved by the majority of customers and well-respected in the e-commerce industry. I've worked for other companies in the past and this is not the norm. Employees can take the vacation time they need, there is no set limit though it's all within reason. And your schedule is fairly flexible across all departments. Health benefits are covered for the employee, and 401k and employee stock purchase plan are available. Opportunities arise for those who are driven, go outside of their daily responsibilities to contribute, and are willing to humbly but directly state where you'd like to grow with the company and ask how you can get there. Overall, you get the excitement of helping develop and support a leading product in the industry while also taking advantage of the stability and benefits of a more established company.

Cons

The company is only 4 years old but has seen tremendous growth. In many ways, this is a really good thing, however I believe that does mean we are still maturing in terms of processes and structure, particularly in supporting employees. If you require lots of feedback from management for job satisfaction, and are not accustomed to asking for what you want, ShipStation may not be the right fit for you.

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
