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.
