Pros

- Employee discount - Cross-functional collaboration is high - Working on a greater mission can feel exciting - It’s a start up so, you’ll wear a lot of hats

Cons

- It’s a start up so, you’ll wear a lot of hats - The CEO is an influencer who is a narcissist at best and vindictive at worst. She makes business decisions based on her own whims, not accepting new information, data, or anything related to inclusion. - There are basically no measures in place to standardize pay. - Middle management and company culture don’t exist. - There are no growth opportunities (or only opps for white ppl) & high turn over - HR does not exist and will not protect anyone besides leadership - Everyday is a fire drill - If you are LGBTQ or not a cis white straight person…be prepared to defend your very existence at every turn

Pros

I admire their sustainable mission and products

Cons

I did freelance copy work for Package Free in 2022 and my final invoices were still never paid. When I followed up about it, they showed concern but then sort of just....decided to ignore it. I reached out to the founder about it to let her know that this was happening...No response, she clearly doesn't care. There are so many other sustainable companies to support that actually do right by their workers, don't choose to support (or work at) this one.
