Pros

It's a challenging time for most retailers and we are on the precipice of exciting product launches to help compete against Amazon. ShopRunner is a fun place to work with intelligent and interesting colleagues, great perks with PTO, generous family leave and medical/dental/vision benefits, and a beautiful office full of flexible working spaces, constantly stocked snacks and drinks, trivia nights, game nights and weekly lunches. It's a culture that cares deeply about diversity/inclusion and are trying to walk the walk as well as talk the talk. I enjoy here.

Cons

There are always growth pains in smaller companies, especially when you are ambitious. Because of our size, there is never a lack of things to accomplish. If you don't have a start-up mindset, the speed at which we try to move can be daunting.

Pros

1.) The San Mateo, CA office is top-notch. Great location, with easy walking distance to tons of restaurants for lunch and post-work happy hours. 2.) Great group of people. Everyone working here seems 100% committed to producing a great product, and coworkers are always challenging you to be your best. 3.) Great work/life balance. Generally speaking, there aren't a ton of late nights or early bird meetings. Management understands we all have lives, because they do too! With such a shallow company, everyone from the CEO on down is on a first-name basis with one another.

Cons

1.) Although the office space is great, the building is a tad dated. The elevators are extremely slow, and it seems like there are always repairs happening on the dishwasher/AC/elevators/etc. Not necessarily a "ShopRunner" problem, but it definitely makes a difference in the day-to-day. 2.) No real feeling of company culture. It feels as though this is getting better, with increased company-wide meetings and more frequent happy hours but there is still a long way to go. A common mission statement would be nice. 3.) There is no sick-day policy, just a combined PTO policy. We have a very open-air office, and when someone comes in sick because they have a vacation coming up and can't afford to take a day to stay home, that affects the whole office.
