Pros

Great enterprenuerial environment where one can really make an impact on the business. Great co-workers who work hard at what they do. Input was actively solicited by Senior management and I felt that my opinion was valued and listened to.

Cons

Working in a fulfillment center prevented me from enjoying Christmas and Thanksgiving since that is the busy season. It was all hands on deck so I couldnt travel to see family. As the company has matured it was beginning to lose some of the laid back culture that it had. Very much a place where you are expected to jump in and contribute - the downside of this was there was not a lot of training - though there were resources for support

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
