Pros

Aurate was a really great place for me to work and develop my professional skillset. I came into the company pretty green in the startup world and the founders & team members really took time to help me integrate. The culture was intense and dynamic, as with all startups, but the support from the employees and founders made it worthwhile! Working at a startup is a rollercoaster of an experience but it really armed me with a strong problem solving skillset that I still use to this day.

Cons

No real con here, but as mentioned above, it got a little crazy at times but in an exciting way - watching the company grow was super satisfying.

Pros

- smart and caring co-workers in the trenches with you - seems glamorous to the outside world - learn from the Founders how to masterfully spin PR to make a failing company appear successful to employees, the media, and investors

Cons

- Super disappointing to learn after joining the company that the lip service paid to 'giving back' and supporting worthy causes is untrue - make no mistake, the company pockets the money (ask for receipts!) - There is zero regard internally for jewelry quality, leaving customer-facing teams to handle the fall out from disappointed buyers. - The founders are more concerned with raising their personal profiles than improving business fundamentals - Overtime is not paid despite working conditions, customer refunds are not paid promptly - they'll do whatever they can to hoard cash
