Vantaggi
Auction.com has been one of the best companies I've worked for. Everyone in the marketing department has been some of the nicest, most supportive people I've ever worked with. The open-office environment allows for easy communication and effective collaboration with all team members. Everyone is easy to get along with and super talented which means you're constantly learning new things. Great atmosphere, awesome perks, and snacks for days!
Svantaggi
Communication with other departments and folks in other offices is a challenge due to time zone differences and busy schedules but this can very easily be managed. As someone coming from outside the industry the business model was somewhat hard to grasp and that's because there is a lot going on. My advice for a newcomer would be to always ask a lot of questions. It's a big company but it's important to familiarize yourself with how the different programs work and how each department contributes.
