Pros

This is my first real experience in the tech startups in London and I am really thankful to have the opportunity to be involved in so much more than my job truly entailed. I joined the team at a very early stage and am lucky to be part of this fast-growing journey. There are lots of growth opportunities and it is definitely a pleasure to come to work every day. The team here is lean but everyone is extremely smart, hardworking and really cares about the values the business is building. The founding team puts lots of effort to make sure that everyone has their say across everything from product development, customer interaction to the direction of the business. I appreciate the transparency Yang has shown across the team and to the customers. She leads weekly all-hands meetings to share company strategy, performance, and challenges. Due to the early stage the business is at now, a structure can be limited. but everyone here has input with building structure, processes, and best practices. The leadership team openly welcomes constructive feedback.

Cons

Just like every early-stage startup, there are plenty of opportunities provided to you to learn and grow. It's also not easy all of the times. If you are not a go-getter who wants to get their hands dirty, this is definitely not a place for you.

Pros

Working at Just Wears was a great experience for me. It's a small team and Co-founders Alex and Yang really make you feel at home there right from the start. With any startup, there's a ton of work to do always, but no one ever seems stressed out or in a rush. Not once while I was there was I pressured to hurry up on my work. Everyone is focused on what they have to do and as long as you're taking that work seriously Alex and Yang will be two of the most understanding bosses you've ever had. I've asked to come in late, leave early, or take a day off for a long travel weekend and never once had a problem from them. If you're capable and respect how much work they put into the company, they'll respect you and your needs. The small nature of the company allows for lots of learning opportunities in every aspect of the business. I focused primarily on the logistics side of things, but by my interactions with the co-founders (Who are both very knowledgeable) and other employees, I learned a ton about running a business in general. Everyone there is happy to explain to you what they're doing and teach you if you need help. In short, If you work hard and want to be treated like a human being, this is a great company to work for.

Cons

Sometimes people can be stretched too thin
