Pros

Butternut Box is the best place I've worked. I've learnt a lot over my tenure so far and had a lot of fun along the way. The business provides learning opportunities for team members and encourages us to live and breathe the business values every day. The squad is full of kind, intelligent and honest people who are full of positive energy... it's infectious and it's never a dull day in the office! Every day is different and priorities rapidly change due to scaling up into Europe, therefore you need to be ready to get stuck in. There is also a high level of trust amongst the senior leadership team and I haven't experienced micromanagement, I'm just trusted to get on with my job. As a huge dog lover I feel that I'm contributing to a bigger purpose and am grateful to have an opportunity to play a part.

Cons

The team is very high performing, so be ready to be on your toes. It's not a company where you can sit back and coast... everyone's role is important to the growth of the business. There is also a really open feedback culture that might not be for everyone (expect to receive constant feedback, even when you don't ask for it).

Pros

I have to say this is the most rewarding workplace I’ve experienced. It is a truly mission-driven culture where our core values drive our daily decisions and product. The environment is incredibly agile and fast-paced, which means you are constantly learning. From a career development standpoint, everything is exceptionally clear and tailored to the individual. Whether you want to progress down an Individual Contributor pathway, or step into a People Management route or try a new challenge through internal mobility - there are clear frameworks and opportunities in place for everyone, On top of that, you get to work alongside some of the brightest, most ego-free, and collaborative people (and passionate animal lovers) in the industry! !!

Cons

My only flag is that the business moves so fast that keeping up with the rapid pace can sometimes feel intense. It requires lots of adaptability and resilience, but having such a supportive team makes it completely worth it.

Pros

If you want a career that is both intellectually stimulating and deeply meaningful, this is the place to be! Mission & values driven culture: It’s rare to find a company that actually lives its values every single day. The mission here isn't just a slogan on the wall; it’s the heartbeat of the business. There is a profound, shared commitment to making a positive, tangible impact on the environment, which makes the work incredibly rewarding. Incredible team & collaboration: You will be working alongside some of the brightest, most passionate, and genuinely supportive people. The culture is collaborative, ego-free, and highly motivating. Unmatched development opportunities: Leadership genuinely invests in your growth. Whether you are looking to sharpen your current skillset or take on new leadership challenges, the developmental pathways and mentorship here will fast-track your career.

Cons

The pace is fast and there is a high bar, which means it’s not a place where you can just coast. However, if you love a healthy challenge, you will thrive here.
