Pros
So many pros compared to other startups: - Feeling that you are part of something growing that will be big, Amazon driving retails to provide same day service - Really strong female leaders including the CEO and executive team members who are directly influencing the success and profitability of the company - Profitability is strong and the company is very focused on making smart decisions to support this including making data driven decisions but also not just relying on data - Focus on building long lasting connections and sticky relationships using APIs and partnerships that are mutually beneficial - Demand keeps growing and individual contributors can have a great impact in helping this trend - Very strong partnerships and learning opportunities, most notably UPS, opportunity to meet with execs from UPS including Jack Levis who led the ORION project - Employees who enjoy collaboration, don't need to be heroes, and thrive on non-prescriptive work flows will do well
Cons
- As with any startup, there are limited tools employees need to get their job done - Hiring is a challenge in this market and there are some pains surrounding this. - Managing culture is another challenge and there can be some pains surrounding this
