Pros
Some of the other reviews make me wonder if we're working at the same company. Glow Recipe is definitely a start up and resources can be lean. But the company has come a long way in a very short time because the company culture is scrappy. I think it's naive to expect a start up to have multiple departments including HR, accounting, IT. I've had abundant opportunity at this company to learn and shape my own role. For someone who enjoys solving problems and an entrepreneurial environment, it's exciting. There are a lot of opportunities to attend launch events and sometimes industry events. The co-founders are very experienced and work very hard. They are tough, but fair and I've learned a lot from them. The entire team is dedicated and you often get emails around the clock, but there is no expectation that you need to answer these after working hours. There are PTO days and health benefits. Plenty of free product.
Cons
The work is very demanding and fast paced and it requires a lot of multi-tasking. If you are the type of person who needs a lot of structure and hand-holding, this is not for you.
