Pros

Etsy provides good benefits and recognizes that employees need to be healthy and happy to do well in their jobs. They almost always made reasonable accommodations, trained their managers well, and kept salaries at market level- even for long term employees.

Cons

Like any company, they are in the business of making money. There can be a level of toxic positivity when leaders talk about the mission statement, but no more so than most companies.

Etsy “nice”

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours. Good worklife balance.

Cons

Stressful culture with a lack of clear vision and guidance from the top down. All leaders have been there a while and disconnected from teams. As others noted, it is a toxic culture where people are fakely nice, management does help grow and guide their team, and leads to burn out. Hr has little actual power in the process so employees aren’t protected against cruel managers.
