Pros

Etsy has a welcoming culture and their benefits are amazing.

Cons

There is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to how career advancement works at this company however, while in some areas of work you may be promoted based on the quality of your hard work, there is a definitely a problem with favoritism and getting positions based on social connections and popularity within the company versus solely based on quality of work.

Thank you for this feedback, and we’re glad that our focus on inclusive benefits and a welcoming culture have contributed so positively to your Etsy experience. However we’re concerned about your comment around career advancement. We certainly do not support favoritism as a tool by which to award upward mobility, and an equitable and fair promotion process is a key pillar to the program. Management and HR are trained and available to support any employee who feels that these standards have not been upheld, and to ensure equity throughout the company and specifically the program. We encourage you to reach out to your HR Business partner – whose information you can find on the Intraknit – for confidential assistance.

Thank you for sharing this with us. We agree that our colleagues are truly special, and working alongside them is one of the best aspects of being at Etsy. However, we’re concerned to hear your comment about toxic pockets. This is not something we find acceptable, and Management and HR are trained and available to support any employee who feels that Etsy’s standards of kind and respectful communication may not have been upheld. We encourage you to reach out to your HR Business partner – whose information you can find on the Intraknit – for confidential assistance. We’re disappointed to hear that you don’t feel that feedback has yet been taken seriously, and we hope this step will help.
