Pros

Salary and development. 1. Increased Sales The chief draw of selling on marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay is the scale of their online presence. Amazon alone draws nearly 85 million unique monthly visitors - that’s a heck of a lot of eyeballs! And those eyeballs can translate into higher sales volumes. According to an Amazon executive, sellers report an average 50% increase in sales when they join Amazon Marketplace.

Cons

3 years of program - If you have experience, maybe this is not the position. Setting up shop on a marketplace can potentially supercharge your sales, but it also exposes you to another cost center - marketplace fees. Most marketplace fees are deducted as a percentage of each sale, and can vary from site to site and even category to category.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
