Pros

- Linnworks was once a good company to work for, with great team spirit and a product that solved problems within e-commerce. - Free access to Headspace for mental health support (very much needed) - Can make good money from commission

Cons

- If you like being harassed and belittled constantly - Linnworks is for you. "Coaching" is your manager talking at you about how they would do it, how they sold massive deals in the past and them being confused about why you may struggle with areas of your skillset that need development. - Since being bought by a private investment firm in 2021, it went downhill from there. I understand companies have to make tough decisions but the way they delivered redundancy news showed zero compassion for employees. A second round was just announced before Christmas in 2022. I guess money does change people.

Pros

Benefits; pto, medical and schedule flexibility.

Cons

My experience was defined by constant change with little to no documentation. Updates were often shared only with select team members in impromptu meetings and not communicated to the broader team. Even when changes were announced more widely, they were frequently revised on the spot, making it difficult to execute and stay aligned. Role responsibilities expanded significantly over time, including increased workload and expectations to be proficient in bith systems (SkuVault and Linnworks), without corresponding changes in title or compensation. Despite early discussions around investing in employee development, including training and certifications, there was no follow-through on career advancement or structured growth opportunities. Multiple rounds of layoffs significantly impacted morale and created an unstable day-to-day environment. There was also substantial executive turnover, including two CEO changes and several leadership shifts, which contributed to a lack of consistency and direction.
