Pros

Working at Puffin has been an outstanding experience. The company's mission resonates deeply with me, offering both a sense of purpose and direction that aligns with my personal values. Living in Bend has been an incredible opportunity, offering a work-life balance that’s hard to come by. The community spirit and the scenic beauty of the area contribute greatly to the overall quality of life. The professional and personal growth opportunities at Puffin have been abundant, with management that is genuinely invested in the employees’ development.

Cons

As with many start-ups, navigating the uncharted waters of COVID-19 presented its fair share of challenges. The pandemic tested our adaptability and resilience, as we worked to maintain our momentum and uphold our mission amidst the global uncertainty.

Pros

Being on a small team in a startup allows you to have way more impact on the company than working at a bigger company. I like that Puffin gives a lot of control and autonomy to it's employees.

Cons

The culture has been difficult to nail down. There have been so many changes over the years, some for the better, some for the worse that it gets hard to settle into a stable culture.

Pros

Brand with opportunity to grow in marketplace. Opportunity to learn many different parts of the brand, as most employees do more than their role states. Good benefits and PTO. Operationally the company is pretty sound and has SOPs decently dialed.

Cons

Majority of team has left the company in the last 6 months due to policies and lack of trust from CEO. CEO has never led a company before and is unable to make decisions for the business that will help it succeed. Salaries are well below average, and company is not hitting goals so bonuses are rarely paid out. Culture has completely fell off since CEO was hired. CEO seems to try to fix things, but not sure he is qualified to do so.
