Pros
One of the pros here is that we walk the talk here at Shiftsmart. We don't only market our platform for companies but we use it ourself in over 19 countries. Other pros to working at a start up include: - The mission is clear - Employee impact is evident - You can take on more responsibility (if you want) - You learn a lot - Unique growth opportunities always present themselves - Culture is relaxed and fun (Outside of the obvious, also great benefits and 401k)
Cons
Like any tech company, the work can be complicated and take a lot of hands on work creating an imbalance for quick learning for those that are new to the industry like myself. The difference to this imbalance is that the team works diligently to also take time to train newbies like myself to the terms and to produce greater work product as a whole for the company. It's been a longer road to learning for me personally but I continue to listen, ask questions and keep up (even if I do put in a few extra hours to learn how to complete a task.)
