Pros

ShopRunner is in an exciting time to join. Sam Yagan is committed to build a great team in Conshy and Chicago. The Chicago office is growing and its a great time to be a part of the team. Lots of leadership opportunities both technically and mentoring exist. New Parent Benefit - paid time off! is amazing We are encouraged to make bold decisions and are held accountable We are all adults and we are treated as such. No micromanaging here.

Cons

Time to scale. Some legacy systems are in place. (This can be viewed as good challenge though)

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.
