Pros

They claim to be a reimagined e- commerce marketplace that directly connects and empowers both consumers and brands. It has a network of over 2 million app users and over 10,000 merchants.

Cons

The leadership is horrible. These awful people conduct mass layoffs every couple of months and call it "restructuring". It creates terrible fear and stress in the minds of employees who just want some stability.

Pros

Loved working with all the people at Route! Always unique and fun projects.

Cons

Fast paced environment with some last minute tight deadlines as to be expected working with an up and coming tech startup

Pros

The company has energy, and there are moments where it genuinely feels exciting… at least temporarily.

Cons

Everything moves extremely fast, which sounds great at first, but eventually the constant shifting starts creating more confusion than momentum, because priorities change, expectations evolve mid-process, and communication doesn’t always keep pace with those changes, so instead of building confidence in the work you’re doing, you end up constantly recalibrating and trying to keep up with whatever the newest focus is, which becomes mentally exhausting after a while because nothing ever feels fully settled long enough to actually succeed properly.
