Pros

Any pros for ShopRunner won't be valid in 6 months as FedEx continues to infiltrate.

Cons

The acquisition by FedEx has been a disaster. We were told everything would stay the same for a year or so, but that was a lie. First, Sam Yagan is no longer the CEO - he was fired out of nowhere and the new CEO would not let him say goodbye. Second, the entire leadership team is different than what is listed on their website. There are no women on the leadership team. With the exception of one person, the rest are white males -- there has been little explanation why these men are in the positions they are in. Third, any benefits provided by ShopRunner will be gone by 2023 (according to FedEx). Fourth, there is no clear vision or reason why FedEx acquired ShopRunner. Everyone has a different story. Inconsistent messaging on everything.

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.
