Pros

Get exposure to most of the best practices and trends within e-commerce. Good compensation and fun work environment in growing company that offers many opportunities.

Cons

Growth of the company has exceeded the skills of most of its management. People management is especially poor and the company is developing a bureaucracy and "drinking the kool-aid" mentality that holds back innovation.

After 5 jobs with some of the biggest in the industry, here's one which walks the talk. they care about you and do all they can to make your work challenging and your resume top-class - Amazing Innovation drive - Flat organization - Won't get bored - One of the best salary packages

Cons

- This is a software company.. the non-software guys belonging to the business will have more challenges in growing - This is a software company.. some of the decisions on products are taken in lieu of the engineering capability rather than the customer need

Pros

Lots of room for growth, learning and advancement.

Cons

There is little consideration for people's personal lives, and the impact that their work may have on their personal life. Transportation pass is a really good benefit, but really the only benefit outside of basic medical/dental/401k.
