Pros

Landing a job at Etsy is the dream. We have a start-up mentality but are established. We are small but not too small. The perks are unbelievable (from 6 months of paid parental leave, to free breakfast, lunch, (amazing) coffee, and snacks, to yoga classes in the office, cute pups at people's desks, and flexible work hours)--no one wants to leave. You can develop real relationships with your co-workers because people want to stick around and grow their careers here. Working at a mission-driven organization while also being developed and compensated well is very rewarding.

Cons

Not much at all, the only thing I can think of is that, because of the fact Etsy has changed so much/grown so rapidly over the last few years, it feels like there's a divide between the newcomers and the old-timers who have been around since the beginning. But everyone is very open and welcoming.

Pros

There are no pros at all

Cons

The company constantly rips off their customers. They routinely hold large sums of money from the business that sell on their site. They tell the sellers that there was a complaint or some problem with their store and then hold their money while using it for normal operating capital. Do not get involved with these people. Stay away.
