Pros

• Decent benefits, pay on the low end for the area but the flex time was cool. • Good location of the office. • Modern technologies used

Cons

• Extremely poor communication and unclear expectations from higher ups. • The “training” is not actually helpful for what you will do, lasts a long time as well. You may be given a month’s worth of tasks completely unrelated to the work you will be expected to do once out of “training”. • Low pay for a VERY high cost of living area, you will be very unlikely to be able to afford to live close to work alone. • While not at all exclusive to this company, culture and fitting seemed to play a large role in how you were talked to/overall treated. • Does not need to be in-office 5 days a week, it is the perfect type of work for a hybrid program.

Pros

I joined Nutshell at the end of 2025 and I absolutely love the company and the people. The culture is genuinely positive—teams are supportive, collaborative, and filled with people who truly believe in what they do every day. There’s real pride in the product, and it shows. People are passionate, thoughtful, and deeply committed to customers and to each other. There are also great perks that make day-to-day life better: a flexible schedule (“flex time”), multiple offices for hub visits, holiday perks, and plenty of thoughtful extras throughout the year. On top of that, being part of a parent company that’s been recognized as a “Best Places to Work” for 10 years really shows in the employee experience. Highly recommend Nutshell to anyone looking for a team-oriented environment, strong culture, and a company people are proud to represent.

Cons

Honestly, I don’t have any real cons—this is a genuinely a positive place to work, and I actively recommend it to people in my network.
