Pros

Not many pro's to discuss as of late. Snacks, lunch, drinks. The office is a nice, but a tight fit. You're too late for the big sale and bonuses. It's now owned by stamps.com.

Cons

There is a long list of cons! I would suggest those who are exploring opportunities here ask some really deep questions and see what your responses are. Ask about employee training and enrichment or what sorts of goals do you set for employees? How are advancement opportunities opened to employees? How much in charitable giving did you do last year? Will the founders bail at the end of the year after getting their $40 million in stamps.com stock (on top of their $50 million cash)? ShipStation is not the same company it used to be. People used to love coming to work and be proud to say where they worked. Today it is not the same company it once was. Employees are regularly shown the door with no warning. When advancement opportunities are available, they are filled in secret. No one is given the opportunity to express interest. No one cares about your personal career goals and there is zero effort spent on employee training. The work atmosphere is tense and edgy. The leadership at the top tends to publicly chastise people in front of others. Mgmt is not friendly or supportive, more combative and argumentative. There is only a small circle of people who the leadership actually listens to and gives lip service or hollow promises to the rest. Fear and intimidation is the preferred leadership style.

Pros

I knew there was something special about ShipStation when I interviewed with them. Every person I interviewed with was friendly, passionate and highly intelligent. I was ecstatic when I was offered the job. So far, I can't believe how good it is to work here. Yes, there are challenges, but they are nothing compared to things I've experienced in similar sized or larger companies. People are friendly, helpful, and open about challenges, whether it be technical issues, process, or otherwise, and everyone wants to work together to succeed. I look forward to a long and successful career working alongside some of the most passionate, intelligent, awesome group of people I've ever met.

Cons

I've only been here for a short while, but so far, I don't have a single negative thing to report.

Pros

Colleagues are great to work with, free drinks, snacks, occasional lunches.

Cons

Salary is not aligned with workload, employees are severely taken advantage of! It is almost impossible to receive a pay raise and they currently have some very unprofessional policies, along with no HR Dept. The career growth is a joke, although they claim to make it a priority to see their employees advance! The execs do not seem to understand what employees do on a day to day basis. The current CEO seems most excited and engaged after someone is fired or leaves. Too many great employees overlooked and who continue to feel unappreciated for their hard work.
