Pros

I was the first sales representative at SnackNation, and it is one of the best decisions of my life. Back in the olden days (2014), I had to pack sample boxes, help ship orders and do customer service and we now have a team of 50 people! I was always aligned with the companies vision of making health food more accessible than junk food, so I stuck with the ups and downs. As of January 2016, I reached my big, hairy audacious financial goal, good things definitely come to those that wait. We all dream big here and are not afraid to fail forward, that is what is what is at core of our success. One of the best things about being an employee at SnackNation is the focus on personal development. I have transformed as an employee and on a personal level, I am the best version of myself. I will always hold SnackNation dear to my heart and forever be grateful for the opportunity they gave me.

Cons

If you are not a people person, you will not fit in.

Pros

SnackNation is a fast-growing, mission-driven startup with an amazing and utterly unique company culture. The philosophy here is that the personal and professional growth of the individual employee will drive the growth of the business, and they really put their money where their mouth is in that regard. Weekly "Sensei Sessions" get our minds primed on Monday morning, and "crush-it-calls" help us rewind, reflect, and express gratitude on Friday afternoon. Leadership is supportive and positive, and encourages employees to be entrepreneurial within their roles. It's a company that lives and breathes its values, and every day is fun, challenging, and full of energy. I honestly love working here. Every day is challenging and rewarding, and the people are great!

Cons

This is not the place for you if you're apathetic or just want to get your hours in.

Pros

Top Pro: the People. Everyone who walks through the door would agree that our team is the best, and not easy to leave! Also, this is the only place I have worked where I actively seek to hang out with coworkers as real friends outside of work (not just at work-sponsored events!). Also, no real politics here. Merit and personality rule all. -Personal growth - I have elevated my professionalism and personal life leaps and bounds since before I started working here, all due to the company. -Autonomy - of course there are rules, standards, quotas, etc. But your workflow is truly your own. This is not for everyone, as it requires discipline, but if you consistently perform you will consistently earn more trust and autonomy in your day-to-day! -Fun - yes we like to have fun outside of the office, but even during the busiest work day you can find a way to have a fun, light hearted day here. This made apparent when we have visitors (especially friends) who always say something along the lines of "I wish my office was like this!" -Flexibility - again, this comes down to performance, but as long as you execute the team is very flexible with your needs. This includes working remotely, vacation requests, and more - just make sure you are crushing it and the company takes care of you. Also, you can sometimes invent your own role here should the situation arise, but *see only con below.

Cons

Lacking paths of professional growth - this can be part of a still growing, start-up culture, but can also be frustrating. For example, Company A may have a very clear path of progression: Intro Position A --> Intro Position B --> Team Lead A --> Team Lead B --> Manager, etc. This does not exist at all levels in this company and again, can be frustrating. **This is not a complete Con, however, because it does sometimes enable some to grow their own role within the company, which I would consider a serious Pro** Having said the above, the company does consistently work to grow your professionalism and skills. Just not always a roadmap within the company itself.
