Pros

A great place for motivated, intelligent, self-starters. With an open office and a small team, being an extrovert with a positive attitude and strong communication skills will go a long way. - Be able to see your ideas and improvements implemented and make a direct impact on the success of the company - Product and marketing decisions made based on customer feedback and statistical analysis instead of political or hierarchical BS - Management is receptive to feedback and new ideas - recommended that employees maintain constructive communication - A wonderful team made up of experts ranging from customer service to sales to design. There is a wealth of knowledge for anyone who wants to learn here. Also, lots of fun to be had. - Self-expression, brainstorming, and idea-sharing is encouraged. No stuffy office culture to try to fit into.

Cons

No cons to speak of. Management is receptive to change and constructive criticism - all issues I've ever had have been addressed.

Pros

I really enjoyed working for Greenvelope. I worked as a Customer Service representative. The only reason I left was to open my own business (a barre studio), but if I ever needed a job again, I would try to get in on this company in a heartbeat! Some things I enjoyed: > the product and mission are awesome. I still use Greenvelopes every year! > learned innovative skills for customer service > problem solving kept it engaging > great team! it was fun to learn from the sales team and the designers > enhanced my computer software fluency. we utilized many different internal systems for organization, tracking, etc. > some people brought in sit/stand desks, and when the company moved to a new space, it added a yoga and meditation studio, a full kitchen, lounge areas and a conference room with skylights. Loved the diversity of spaces to work/chill. > It's RIGHT downtown, next to everything. I would always go to Urban Yoga Spa right after my shift, or sometimes during lunch. > Friday happy hours with the team were such a blast. The team would order booze in and we'd all stop work early :)

Cons

The biggest con would be parking, especially if you're coming from West Seattle (like I was). Sam was awesome and compensated me for my parking twice/week so that I could balance this job with a yoga teaching job I had.

Pros

Great coworkers and Friday happy hour

Cons

Hours are closely monitored by CEO, employees typically come in early, eat at desk, don't take breaks and answer emails all hours of the day. But if you need to leave early for a doctor appointment the hours were taken out of your vacation time i.e. pretty petty passive aggressive management style. No upward mobility.
