A good starting place to gain experience

Pros

BigCommerce offers a nice benefits package to all new employees, corporate events throughout the year, and unlimited snacks + a weekly catered lunch. Home to the best people I have ever worked with.

Cons

BigCommerce will pay you significantly less than what you're worth on the market. Pay raises are few and far between. Receiving a promotion should not be seen as an alternative to a pay raise, especially when you are already under paid. The culture is on a steady decline, starting to feel more like a number/stat than a person at this company. Some departments get the red carpet rolled out for them while others get the short end of the stick. Unofficial motto: do more, care more, and be more efficient while we pay you the same.

Pros

The people here are amazing. People from all walks of life here work together on hard problems. The projects are super valuable and ground breaking. Free Lunch, lots of snacks. Lots more focus on building culture in the SF office.

Cons

Management needs to work on hiring and prioritization. We tend to have too much to do with too few people. Local teams are doing well reducing the amount of work they attempt but there are lots of things we need to get done.
