Pros

Intelligent people in all departments, and a product/mission we all believe in. Hands down, the most collaborative place I've worked - regardless of role/department, you are relied upon for input/feedback, and everyone has ample opportunity to influence the direction of the company. Even though we're growing like crazy, it still feels like a young start-up, and there's a standing open-door policy with leadership. Plus, everybody here is just cool! Some of my best friends are people I've met at ShipStation, and I'd hang out with them regardless of work. Everyone works hard, but then you can also find someone to grab a beer with you pretty much any night of the week. -Full Medical/Vision/Dental -401K with Employer Match -Employee Stock Purchase Program -Public Transit Incentives -Stocked Kitchen -Weekly Catered Lunches -Beer Fridays -Shiny New Office at 38th & Lamar

Cons

VERY fast paced; all employees are expected to keep up to speed on weekly product/feature updates, as well as constant company-wide Slack, and the eCommerce/Shipping space in general. Most employees find this exciting, but it can be challenging for some.

Pros

The only reason this doesn't have 5 stars is because there is always room for improvement, anywhere and everywhere. Opportunity. If you put yourself out there, mingle with other departments, dabble with projects that are above and beyond your day-to-day workload, you can force an opportunity to present itself. It'll take a lot of extra work and you'll probably go a little crazy, but if you want to get ahead anywhere, that's what you have to do. I have the freedom to try new things, to make mistakes and correct course if they don't work. I can succeed or fail based on my own work ethic and ideas. That's freeing. Perks: —Free health/vision/dental plans —Employee Stock Purchase Plan & 401K —Fully-loaded fridges and snacks (replenished every Friday & you can put in snack requests) —Catered lunches on Wednesday —Free parking pass for the garage or a public transit stipend —Again, opportunity —Unlimited vacation and sick time —Lots of free t-shirts —Beer Fridays —Senior Management is accessible; the CEO has "office hours" every day

Cons

The workload tends to be intense. Inter-departmental communication has broken down in the past, but has already improved drastically. Not sure if it's a con, but odds are you need to put yourself out there for opportunities, as opposed to having them handed out. If you want to move around, make it known.
