Pros

Flexport has a great vibe. The team doesn't take itself too seriously. But at the same time, we are well aware how important our work is, and how good we are at it. We have the wonderful opportunity to work at the intersection of global trade and information technology, two of the greatest forces for good the world has ever seen. We don't take this responsibility lightly, and we're well aware how hard it is to simplify such complex processes. The company pays well and offers really excellent health benefits, lunch daily, and an all-around laid back work atmosphere The fridge is well-stocked and people frequently share a beer as we wrap up the day's work. We frequently host our customers for happy hours, product demos, lunches, etc. It's nice being able to meet the people you're helping and play with the products that we helped get delivered. It's easily the smartest group of people I've ever worked work. Such a pleasure compared to previous logistics jobs I've had where most people hadn't finished college.

Cons

1/ San Francisco is expensive 2/ Logistics never stops. People work long hours for our customers.

Pros

The team really wants to change the world. We believe there will be more international trade because of Flexport, and that trade is one of the most important ways to impact global standards of living. We don't take ourselves too seriously though. It's a fun place to work, with lots of smart people who actually like each other, and a management team that preaches both freedom and responsibility.

Cons

We work too many hours sometimes.
