Pros

Flexport has come a long way in even the short time I've been here, from the scope of our capabilities, company size, customer base, etc. There is so much to be excited about here in terms of what we've been able to accomplish in such a short amount of time. That said the real pro is in how much more we still have to do and how we are positioned to go after that success. The team here is great - we're constantly pushing each other for more and working to find new and creative solutions to really old problems around Global trade. There is a ton of opportunity here for individuals to have a huge impact on our business and grow there careers at a rapid clip.

Cons

Simply due to our growth change is constant and can sometimes make navigating the day to day a bit more difficult. Our management does a great job in being transparent about those changes but at times shifting priorities can shift workloads in less than efficient ways. This is the case joining any fast growing startup though and to be expected. I think the leadership team here has managed those changes better than most companies in similar situations.

Pros

At Flexport we have undertaken the unbelievable challenge of improving the user experience when it comes to global trade, this alone is a massive PRO. The nuances, complexities, and varying levels of demand on everyone's time makes for whatever role at Flexport to be moving at lightspeed. The exposure and opportunities for impact on teams both near and far are unprecedented in these industries, logistics & tech!

Cons

The job is demanding, the problems are real and impact global commerce on a wide spectrum. There is a lot of pressure to execute and exceed client expectations, and this in itself can create a challenging opportunity for someone not necessarily prepared for the challenge. We do a lot to tackle these challenges head-on with a 2 week onboarding program at our home offices followed by a refresher program that is followed for the next 4-6 weeks based on office. We are humble in knowing that this program/process is a work in progress and one that needs constant fedback and development.
