Pros

There are some good people here who truly want to make the company a better place.

Cons

Every person in a marketing leadership position has been let go. If you make a decent salary, you might not be here for long. People are often released just shy of the one year mark when stocks would vest and many positions are now being filled overseas. There is no trust afforded to the teams that support this company and work is often undone or changed without a conversation, by the founder himself. In the name of transparency, employees are blasted in Slack groups for mistakes made, while there was no transparency or sharing between teams around an entirely new website launch, set to debut just two weeks before Black Friday.

We're sorry to hear of your frustrations and we appreciate the feedback and hear you. As a growing start-up, we are still learning. We do hold transparency as a key value and we understand that can mean different things to different people. In an effort to do better, we’ve recently rolled out a series of trainings on performance management and will be working with our managers, including the founder, on effective ways of giving and receiving feedback. As an all remote, global company, we value our diverse workforce and seek to provide equal opportunities for all our employees and candidates around the world. We are sorry that it was not a good match for you and Hip eCommerce, and we wish you all the best.

Pros

Hip is in a stage of massive growth. If you want to operate as a owner with an extreme focus on the customer you'll love it here. The people are awesome and working towards the same goal. Also, the company growth lots of opportunities to learn, explore, and advance your career.

Cons

Fully remote may take an adjustment for some however the company events and communication are excellent. Have some casual lunch hangs and coffee chats and your good.

Pros

1. Real emphasis on having ownership of your work. This means there isn't red tape when it comes to ideas you bring to the table, and the company really works around the goal that "move fast break things". Where you have the opportunity to try something new that hasn't been done. 2. Work Hard, Play Hard. With the fully virtual work environment, I would describe it as relaxed, engaging, and just being able to control your schedule as you need so you can get your work done. At first, the virtual thing was a transition, but there was a lot of emphasis on being communicative which has been very successful and I really enjoy that flexible virtual work environment 3. Culture: One of the reasons I joined this startup was the Founder's emphasis on building a holistic culture. There is real demonstrated emphasis on employee well-being with fantastic benefits, success, and development. Also, there is demonstrated emphasis on diversity & inclusion. Overall it is a great group of people to work with. 4. The Collectables Space is such a big opportunity, and I think that is what really makes this such an exciting place overall because, everyone is so energized to help disrupt the $200B market, and what makes me want to come to work every day!

Cons

If working virtually isn't for you, it could be a con. Personally no real cons for me. Being able to maintain the culture as we scale will be important.
