Pros

I have had the 'privilege' of working at various organizations that were not run especially well. Spoonflower stands out as an example of a company that really gets it right. I have never had a less than positive experience in my time there. Communication channels are open and easy to use; the supervisors are friendly, open, and helpful; and the management structures are incredibly person-centered and positive without sacrificing efficiency. The employees are supportive, positive, and fun. There are many possible paths to growth within the company as well.

Cons

The hours can be a bit wearing, but the overall flexibility of the schedule makes up for that most of the time.

Thank you for your comments! We work hard to prioritize people over process, and we're glad to know that this has been your experience. It's true -- 'breaking in' to any established group of people (whether here or anywhere) can be tough. We're working to strike the right balance of providing social opportunities for the whole company (coming to the Spring Picnic?) as well as on a department level. Have an idea for a social event to encourage people to get to know each other? Please share it with us -- we'd love to hear your ideas! Thanks for taking the time to comment!

Pros

They encourage employee creativity and individuality. They take care of the employees more then what is necessary or expected. Employee discount on products and a monthly allowance (creativity bonus). Offer overtime pay and increased pay for 3rd shift hours and volunteered snow days. The company is growing quickly so there is always new projects to help out withe and growth for your role within. They hire heavily from within.

Cons

Part time work can vary unreliably between busy times. Sometimes head supervisors work very little hours with evening and weekend staff. Its harder to make an impression on them for promotions unless you work M-F daytime. There is a strong company culture. If you don't drink the Kool-Aid, you might not enjoy it. There is a slight feel of favoritism regarding strictness of policies based on seniority. Employees lean toward liberal ideals, and if you don't agree with the group think - leave your personal opinions at home to avoid hostile and isolating reactions. They are not one for political discussions unless its to pat one another on the back.
