Pros

Most of the people you work with are decent people, especially outside of the office environment. Working at an "e-commerce" company is a good stepping stone to a better job. The warehouse jobs, while low paying, are pretty stress free. Lots of free snacks.

Cons

The salaries are well below industry standard, and the management refuse to acknowledge it. Computers and other technology are extremely outdated. Very long hours are required. Poor/non-existent communication between teams. Systems and processes are backwards and archaic; almost designed to make your job harder and anger customers. While coworkers are nice enough people, the long hours and awful pay have embittered most of them. Managers run it like it's still a small dot com started in their living room, take on too many roles. Managers refuse to invest in infrastructure. Warehouse jobs mostly aren't full time.

Pros

Supportive company culture. Struggling Internet startup with big wins and big failures. Ambitious and well-meaning group. As much time off as you want--hourly wage.

Cons

Compensation was not adequate. Definitely need a break room, better heating in the winter, more integration of office and warehouse to increase effective communication.
