Pros

On paper, Whisker sounds great. They are taking on hard problems and advocating to improve pet health. - fun team building events - nice coworkers - will support learning new skills related to work - if you can "play the game" there is room to grow

Cons

In practice, Whisker missed the mark. The culture they share during the interview process doesn't match what happens behind the scenes. There is definitely favoritism and a bait and switch on remote versus in-person work. More middle managers are added instead of hiring people to actually do the work. - inconsistent communication between product and engineers - unrealistic deadlines that end up mostly ignored anyway - pet health features take a back seat - budget distributed unequally across organizations

Pros

It's a family, a culture that is unique to the manufacturing industry. I have worked in many manufacturing facilities in my career, and Whisker has the most unique culture I have encountered. There are "those" days of course like any place that you feel like pulling your hair out, but, we get through it, help each other and move on. You don't mind going that extera mile for the place because they take care of you. Mangers are flexible and easy to work with and listen. Supervisors, and managers really listen to the associate concerns. And they not only listen, they act on those concerns whenever possible. Whisker is worth the time to check out, maybe become one of the family?

Cons

We do work our share of overtime, but they try to manage it so we can get the time off when needed. Sometimes short staffed, but what facility isn't from time to time. We do all woerk together to move associates to the lines that need help at the time, leads and mangers help out to come up with solutions.
