Vantaggi

The comradeship was good and you will get into great shape working at the Gym. There is no HR here and a very "loose" environment.

Svantaggi

- Awfully Bad Management - Insecure Co-Founder - If it isn't perfect it won't work - Bring your own laptop and chair - Awful Hours - 8am - 10pm...yes...seriously. - Paranoia - Taking Time off is very hard to do due to Crunch - Crunch Time - Indecisive Co-Founder - People get burnt out quickly.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We take these matters very seriously and appreciate your honesty. I’d like to apologize for the negative experiences you had during your time here at PennyPop. I’d like to directly address some of your past experiences and show how we have evolved and matured as a company. We no longer have stock-standard hours. Instead, we have a flexhours system where we trust in everyone to be responsible and accountable for themselves and their teams. Our system and culture of mutual trust also extends to our working from home policy and any time off. We also recognize that our processes are not perfect, which is why we work tirelessly to improve them. Along those lines, we have integrated more precision planning, more transparent decision making, and more efficient processes into everything we do so that we build better productions and mitigate a lot of the hurdles you mention. Our work is never done and we'll never stop improving. Thanks again and best of luck!

Vantaggi

WRKSHP is a company with an amazing vision. And there is amazing talent and willpower in the company to achieve that vision. Hours and PTO are flexible and up to the individual responsibility. Office has a beautiful view of the bay bridge.

Svantaggi

WRKSHP is constantly breaking new grounds and creating innovative unique entertainment products. The nature of these projects demands an a unique amount of talent, self leadership, and grit. Constant failures, trail and error, and long hours are some of the things required to create breakthroughs in projects. It isn't for everyone.

Vantaggi

Choosing to work here has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I used to work in a corporate job where I actually found the work interesting and could see myself continuing down that career path. So when I first started talking to PennyPop, I was a bit skeptical at first. As I continued talking to the team here including the two co-founders, however, I became convinced that this was where I needed to be. The team here is unafraid to tackle any challenge or industry. The company has a solid vision and are focused on building durable, consumer businesses that can withstand downturns. Unlike many startups whose sole goal is to take the company public and make a profit, people here genuinely believe in making the world a little better than it was before by providing consumer experiences that make people happy. Creativity is highly valued at the company, and it’s a great feeling to be in such a fostering environment where I find myself creatively challenged. Everyone here is highly motivated and supportive of each other, and managers care about your career growth.

Svantaggi

I think the con with working in such an environment is that it could feel a bit fast-paced. I personally don’t experience this much as I find the work really fulfilling. When people do feel this though, I think they’re generally able to talk to their managers to work things out.
