Pros

Smart people below C-suite Starting to promote benefits of a normal corporate company, like 401(k) match

Cons

Overly involved management, they don’t trust their employees to do the work so they ask to oversee everything Several C-Suite members have not been in e-commerce and do not know how to manage a team Focused on metrics that do not matter and missing important feedback from team members Frequent layoffs, they just hide it by doing it only within certain departments Too many senior directors and not enough people to do the actual work Promise of an IPO for over 5 years with no follow through or roadmap to get there

Pros

They are good at hiring many different terrific people.

Cons

Same thing you've read before. Cult-like culture. Weaponized, encoded feedback. Gendered expectations—I was given "feedback" to shrink myself to fit in; would they have said the same thing to a guy? Best was when my lead encouraged me to submit an anonymous survey for "feedback" on my character and performance to my entire team. :/
