Pros

-People Care -Great Benefits -Great employee groups like mentorship, resource groups, Dens, clubs -Flexible work modes -Focus on sustainability -Great comp package -Start up feel with big boy benefits -Your work actually matters

Cons

-Detachment between middle and upper management often leads to conflicting projects, priorities and jumbled communication down to lower level workers. -Organization/management in some areas is often misaligned with the work/workers they are managing- or lack the right skills to properly manage (from quick internal growth) -Newer workers that are SME’s in some areas are often overlooked -Etsy “nice” can seem a bit toxic and dilutes real constructive criticism or gets in the way of progress -Path for career growth unclear
