Pros
The work is fun! I wake up and look forward to work. I've never had an easier time rolling out of bed and getting started with my day. This is due to a handful of reasons: - the people are amazing and supportive - HR creates nice events for people to connect pretty frequently - culture focuses on getting things done and doesn't get bogged down by anything else - managers really care about making everyone's lives better at work - ...and the managers really care about our general well-being/emotional health/etc - it's comfortable to reach out and chat with anyone in the company - the company continuously improves and makes changes based on feedback - it never feels like you're completely locked in one place - so much room to learn and grow - remote work, but with co-working space to enjoy - I can tell that Makeship really tries its best to reflect its values as a company and of course, ...we. make. plushies.
Cons
Most start-ups have growing pains, and if you've worked in a start-up before, none of this will be surprising to you: - processes are frequently changed and altered, things get built out day by day, so you must be prepared to learn and re-learn how to do your job very frequently - similar vein to the previous point, but larger companies have more tools to prospect, track data, etc - Makeship is much more scrappy as a whole - consumer goods industry has physical limitations for scaling that, for example, do not affect saas/tech nearly as much, which can sometimes be frustrating - as with most sales roles, some weeks can be a bit overwhelming

There are no cons to this job or company.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
- people and coworkers are great - company will do great long term - great benefits
Cons
- very weak upper management - does not like to promote within. Will hire new talent instead - has trouble with internal communication - needs to reward/invest more in current employees - can not keep top talent
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Makeship is a true startup where you get to be accountable for your own work and success. For anyone that's entrepreneurial, it's a great place to hone your skills and grow professionally. The team is truly awesome, everyone is incredibly hardworking, passionate, and co-workers that I would consider friends.
Cons
Strategy isn't always fully formed but it also gives you the opportunity to participate. The team is dispersed across Toronto and Vancouver so it won't be easy to hang out with all your co-workers
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
- Amazing co-workers - Lot of autonomy - Remote work!
Cons
- Nothing I can think of!
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
- Career growth opportunities with the company growing rapidly - Remote with schedule flexibility - Leads who care deeply about the individuals on their teams - No room for complacency with continual improvements to work, culture, structure, etc.
Cons
Overall, no major cons to working at Makeship. This is a company for those who are comfortable with constant change and improvements and deal well with ambiguity.
- Current Employee★★★★★
First day at work feels like meeting a group of familiar friends from a past life!
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Everyone is vastly different with unique backgrounds, talent and skill-sets and there's bound to be someone you meet who you'll connect with instantly. Each project feels like a breath of fresh air and the workplace encourages communication and questions. There is plenty of room to grow and make your own niche within the community. Ideas no matter how crazy they appear are welcome here! Can't wait to meet the team after the pandemic is over!
Cons
Nothing major but given this is a new company, give them some time to organize for a rapidly growing team.
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
- Flexible schedule. - Room for growth. - Friendly/ Diverse team and healthy work environment. - Opportunities to take initiatives and make an impact. - Plus the work is remote!
Cons
- Nothing that I would consider a con.
