Insane growth, great team

Pros

It's a real business that solves fundamental problems for corporate customers. Explicitly not a photo-sharing app or food delivery service. It feels like what we're doing here matters. Huge growth, IPO totally plausible. Most talented team I've ever worked with at all levels of the company. Engineering team moves faster than at other companies I've worked for. Clients are constantly remarking how quickly we release new features. Less important but still cool, exposed brick, loft style office in South Beach with all the typical start up perks

Cons

Company has grown so fast that the office is totally cramped. Lines at the bathroom are a part of everyday life. Work/Life Balance definitely trends more towards work (-;

Fundamentally changing an old world industry

Pros

Flexport is a real schlep business (read Paul Graham on Schlep), tackling a very hard problem in a very hard industry. Very interesting questions to be solved. Traction is amazing, growing every month a breakneck speed

Cons

This is a hard industry, so there no easy ways around it. You need to be passionate about changing the industry here

Pros

What better way to explore the vastness of the oldest frontier than with a crew of the most passionate, intelligent, and hard-working individuals on Earth (and space). Flexport believes in its mission and knows that every team member is vital to that mission. The team challenges the status quo and always pushes the boundaries of what the industry considers possible. Global shipping and logistics is not stopping anytime soon -- neither is Flexport. The growth of this company is phenomenal and has only just begun blasting off.

Cons

High learning curve - not for the faint of heart!
