Business Outlook

Pros

* Superb work-life balance. * People genuinely care and always listen. It’s easy to find help/support whenever you need. We brainstorm and work as a team to make a lot of good things happen. I feel it’s the DNA of the company. * Excellent/competitive product with great vision and exciting roadmap. * I can say from my experience, it’s a forward-looking, innovative, growing, and dynamic company to work for. * I’ve met an abundance of talented, smart and wise people here; and learnt a lot. * I’ve forgotten what Monday blues are!

Cons

Nothing of note to mention.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company has a great benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, as well as some additional resources with regards to mental health, and financial management.

Cons

The salaries are fairly low (about 15-20% lower) compared to similar companies. Employees of the older demographics are overworked and undervalued; often confided in for newer employees who end up getting promoted intead, so there seems to be some disconnect between upper management and veterans that drive much of the company knowledge. FastSpring has historically offered some sort of profit share or equity options for employees, but under the new ownership of AKKR, these options were removed, essentially giving significant pay cuts and lacking par compared to competitors.
