Pros

Flexport is a company that has a great mission: Make global trade easy for everyone. It's targeting a trillion-dollar plus market that is new to tech disruption and has a lot of smart and engaged employees. The workspace is great and is ideally located in SF at Market and Fourth. Transparent and approachable leadership and all of the other good company stuff, including great lunches and unlimited vacation. I've worked at other very successful companies, including the number one search engine and the number one SAAS company and this company has a very similar vibe. The company is backed by VC's that know how to invest - So, follow the money and invest your time with Flexport!

Cons

The only cons are those associated with successful, high growth companies: Lots to do; conference rooms are always booked; constant change. You don't want to work for a company that doesn't have these problems.

Pros

The compensation was strong and competitive, and it was consistently the best part of the job. If your priority is pay in the near term, that piece delivered.

Cons

I struggled with the lack of stability. It rarely felt like the ground was solid, and that uncertainty was hard to sit with over time. Return-to-office expectations seemed to change more than once, and I personally didn't find the reasoning behind those shifts clear. It was hard to plan around. I also found the performance review process difficult to trust. In my experience the outcomes didn't always seem to line up with the actual work, which made it hard to feel like I knew where I stood or how to grow. There was A LOT of turnover in leadership during my time there. With direction changing frequently, it often felt like priorities were in flux, which made it next to impossible to stay oriented.
