      From an intern's perspective....

      Pros

      Great company to have on your resume. Relaxed and perfect if you aren't a driven type-a personality. if it's more important to have friends at work then building a career path, this is a good company for you. no judgement, as i understand how important it is to like the people you work with but you do have to sacrifice something to get that here.

      Cons

      lack of bigger vision, weak management, no protocol for reviews or advancement. all seems to be done on a whim.

      Etsy is a PIP factory

      Pros

      Seemingly cool culture, free food

      Cons

      After the initial honeymoon gets over it is basically a show of inadept leaders (aks Directors) who have formed their own tribes and promote their own agenda under the disguise of company goals. What once used to be a bottom up culture has now been brow-beaten into compliance. They talk about coaching mentality but the real culture is NOT growth oriented, its PIP. Every year some staff will be FORCE fit into saying they did not meet their goals and a PIP is designed. They will make it a short term affair designed to ensure the employee is leaving. I have seen new employees as early as 6 months fall under PIP.

      Pros

      Benefits were ideal, as well as beautiful work space.

      Cons

      Offices other than Hudson, NY seemed great. Inexperienced managers, non competitive pay, and the damn place was like a cult. If you were t drunk off the koolaid or you said the emperor was naked, you were treated as a threat. You need a lobotomy to feel 100% comfortable there.
