Most unpleasant experience of my career.

Pros

Scattered throughout the chaos, there are some good people who want to do good, honest work.

Cons

Low pay. The worst benefits, both in terms of what's offered and the management of them, I've ever experienced. Extremely high turnover, at all levels, warehouse floor to c-suite. All actions and budget allocations are reactive, as nothing is ever looked at through a proactive lens. You will identify problems, craft thoughtful, budget-aware solution options, be told no, and when the problem becomes a major fire, you'll have "couch change" made available to fix, with an expectation that the fix will be immediate. Lots of scrambling to put out fires type of travel is expected. Executive leadership and ownership show a frightful lack of maturity with a cloud of "we've somehow been successful despite ourselves" hanging over every decision. This simply is not a good place to work and will be a stress-inducing hindrance to your career.

Holy ____ What a Bad Company

Pros

None, if you value yourself don't work here.

Cons

Where to begin, this company will literally suck your soul out of you and then have the nerve to ask for a little more. So unprofessional, so disorganized, so ridiculous, so underwhelming in all aspects.

Pros

Some good tech. Some innovative folks, Young energy. Lot's of smart hardworking people

Cons

Shipmonk doesn't care about it's people or it's customers. This ethos has infected the entire organization. Leadership, especially the C Suite, is incredibly toxic and transactional. They blame the front line workers for failures when they are not set up for success. The core of the Shipmonk offering is it's warehousing and fulfillment services. SM refuses to create a reliable quality experience for it's customers. This would require them to give management workloads and quality pay to their operators. The lack of engagement among operational staff. As long as that is poor, the rest of the org is compromised. That doesn't matter to leadership though. SM is banking on it being too difficult to move your inventory elsewhere. They've been incredibly wrong with that mindset. Many big merchants have packed up and left. There's a long list of cons: bad managers, micro managing, fire drills, terrible expense policies for frequent required travel, generally traveling to put out fires, fighting among the various departments: customer success, account management, operations, and logistics. Fighting with each other because of the organizational dysfunction similar to our political system. Veteran professional are treated like mistrusted, children. Tons of favoritism. Dated South Florida Tech Bro vibes reign supreme. It's another post Covid boom company, led by private equity making, it's people and customers lives living hell for profit and sport.
