Vantaggi

Smart coworkers and generally positive culture Catered lunches 2x a week + stocked kitchen Fun company events

Svantaggi

Expected to work 24/7 - unplugging isn't really a thing and management actively encourages weekend work. Marketplace business is not doing well - the model of small businesses selling imported stuff from China at a high premium isn't sustainable long term. Management paints a rosy colored picture of the company and isn't really transparent about problems. Pay/benefits aren't great - no bonuses, stock options, 401k matching, or anything beyond the paycheck. Offers "unlimited" vacation which really only benefits the company as employees don't accrue days off and don't get anything for unused time off after leaving. Most people take off a couple weeks a year. No real career development or opportunities for internal growth

Svantaggi

Unstable Roles. I was hired into a new full-time role at OpenSky (temp-to-perm: hourly compensation). I feel like they used me to get a massive amount of things in working order cheaply. They got a great deal. I worked overtime, implemented new strategies, catered to the very demanding CEO who asked me to "treat him like a baby" and organize his personal life for him (I was even asked to call his mother-in-law to get his information), and generally went into overdrive getting things running. Then, weeks into the job, they asked me to work only 12 hours a week "as they figured out the role." My recruiter was shocked, as was I. Clearly those in management should know that hiring someone full-time and then asking them to work less than part-time is a scam. What a horrible situation to put someone in! I turned down legit jobs to work at OpenSky and they treated me like a disposable (which is also shocking because I handled a lot of confidential information). When I quit they didn't even respond to my notification.
