Fun company and exciting potential!

Pros

Management is transparent, ambitious, and highly invested in the companies success. Casual environment with lots of fun people. Small company means lots of opportunity to work hard and stand out. Coworkers often hang out together and the company sponsors catering once a week. Close to downtown and lots of great restaurants. Good work - life balance here in Santa Barbara.

Cons

Minor politics like any company. No 401K matching.

Pros

Easy-going, fun, relaxed environment with approachable management and open office plan. Great office location in downtown SB, with fully stocked kitchen and weekly lunches.

Cons

Some growing pains and management turnover. Open floor plan can be loud and distracting at times. Not a lot of upward mobility. Compensation is not competitive.

"Startup" poised to do great things

Pros

FastSpring an effective and profitable, well-established startup of 50 or so employees with a SaaS offering at the intersection of payments, subscriptions and e-commerce. As the company was understaffed for many years before acquisition by current leadership there is there is a lot of opportunity for out-sized impact and accelerated growth in all areas of the business. Employees are treated as experts in their fields, feedback is heard, experimentation is encouraged, failure is not dwelled on.

Cons

Though profitable, this is after all, still a start up. Process is being developed, grooves are being found, not all experiments are successful, some "departments" are filled by team effort (like IT or HR). If you are a team player and like solving problems these are less like con's and more like engaging challenges.
