Pros

There isn’t any. The best thing that comes from this place is the bond that the teams created once they got laid off.

Cons

It’s a scam! There is no business model, they plan to drop ship saying it keeps costs down. Then goes and spends thousands for 2 floors of a massive office in an expensive part of Seattle for only 25 people. Products don’t arrive to customers on time and it might not even the be the right product most of the time. They lie to customers and ask every AE to lie to their book of business and tell us to figure it out later. Lower than average salaries with unclear commissions that you’ll never hit. The CEO IS A CHILD WHO WATCHED TOXIC WALL STREET MOVIES and says I can do that with my buddies too. The COO is the CEOs daddy and they lie to employees, and investors. There is nothing good to say about this company. The CEO went on to hire a massive sales team because he told investors this is how we will grow. (Massive office and massive team) and within 3 months of onboarding head of sales, sales managers, and 25+ account executives nationwide he laid them all off. The only people left were his friends and family that he brought on. There are better account executives that got let go than the ones that stuck around.

Pros

-Pays oncoming staff appropriately and generously (plan to stay at that starting rate/salary during your tenure - unless you're a sales rep) -Exceptional talent in ALL departments - I worked with some of the most competent, kind, and talented people while at bttn -95% of all positions can and do function entirely remotely -Flexible with PTO (unlimited PTO - many of the staff would travel around the country or world and would limit log-ins while away) -All departments collaborate and pull their weight -Exciting vision for changing healthcare distribution for customers and vendors/suppliers -Limited micromanaging - must be a self-starter -Senior management is open to ideas, recommendations, visions, etc., for improving processes or growth from the company

Cons

-Start-up environment that may not be for everyone (lots of changes, aborting long projects mid way through, long hours for most) -Often overpromise and underdeliver to staff (pay increases/promotions) and clients (challenges to obtain non-stocked and backordered items in a timely manner and encouraging the customer to wait for the product with bttn rather than purchasing it through their alternative source to meet their immediate needs - in healthcare, the primary goal should be to help our clients be successful and be reliable to patient care - that's what builds trust and lasting relationships in the healthcare community) -Quarterly reduction of force layoffs -Limited room for growth (no merit raises or performance reviews/increases) -Began to outsource talent from India and Philippines (generally good and competent hires), but at the expense of US-based staff
