Pros

Flexport has a great vibe. The team doesn't take itself too seriously. But at the same time, we are well aware how important our work is, and how good we are at it. We have the wonderful opportunity to work at the intersection of global trade and information technology, two of the greatest forces for good the world has ever seen. We don't take this responsibility lightly, and we're well aware how hard it is to simplify such complex processes. The company pays well and offers really excellent health benefits, lunch daily, and an all-around laid back work atmosphere The fridge is well-stocked and people frequently share a beer as we wrap up the day's work. We frequently host our customers for happy hours, product demos, lunches, etc. It's nice being able to meet the people you're helping and play with the products that we helped get delivered. It's easily the smartest group of people I've ever worked work. Such a pleasure compared to previous logistics jobs I've had where most people hadn't finished college.

Cons

1/ San Francisco is expensive 2/ Logistics never stops. People work long hours for our customers.

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.
