Great... for someone who fits into their narrow vision of company culture - Associate Blue Apron Employee Review

Pros

- Plenty of snacks and booze - Flexible schedule and vacation policy

Cons

- Lack of diversity, insular, elitist culture (but what can you expect from a company that is built around a product that promotes touristic appropriation of cuisines and cultures?). - Expectation that employees be cultish-ly enthusiastic about the product; opportunities for advancement are dependent on willingness to act as if Blue Apron is changing the world. - It's a start up and most of the employees are under 35: no one really knows what they are doing, and there are sloppy mistakes everywhere.
