Pros

The mission and vision are great !

Cons

I had joined flexport reading great reviews at Glassdoor as well hearing management including top executives are very receptive, open minded about getting honest employee feedback to build the culture . But my experience was totally contradictory. I had to leave the company my manager who recently joined Flexport seemed to join with the mindset all previous work had to be fixed and she did not take time to build rapport with the current team instead she replaced her current team members including me with her past acquaintances. In the name of cost cutting one employee was being replaced by multiple new hires at higher salaries. Hiring was done purely based on past acquaintance, no proper job postings, job descriptions and interview was being secretive done outside at coffee shops.My manager or upper management was not able to justify my lay-off though they said performance yet no feedback was ever provided or no performance ratings ever reflected that . This definitely discouraged me and seemed quite unjustified as I had spent long hours away from family to deliver the results and meet deadlines.

Pros

Lots of really smart and nice people at the company. The culture has improved a lot recently. There's a good amount of room to develop and jump on things that you might not be exposed to in other companies.

Cons

The company moves a little too fast at times and maybe overlooks things that are working well and don't necessarily need to be changed for "efficiency" at the risk of doing things incorrectly. It can be hard to move up in some departments. work/life balance varies a lot by team.
