Pros

Healthy, macro counted lunch provided Snacks and drinks provided Uses Slack for communication Lots of active communities to join and be part of Always a lot of events going on Tech is new and updated Very fast paced

Cons

The work is unrelenting Pay is below market (they claim that this is so because the food provided in office makes up for this (which is debatable)) A lot of the current senior management are employees who have been at Checkout for years and not necessarily because they earned their role

Pros

Good salary, thats about it

Cons

Toxic work culture, they want you to work from 6 am to 9pm. If you do not speak french or are not french you will feel like an outsider. Favoritism is big here, manager have their favorites and will feed them inbounds. Very hard to get approval to go to conferences, and there is no ROI, longer reps hold on to bigger name merchants for years even though they are not having any impact, and no one does anything about it.
