Pros: I've been at Zipline about a year, and I love it so far. It feels great to put my software skillset to use addressing a humanitarian issue - surprisingly hard to find companies that are working in this space and actually accomplishing things in the field! The company has a really great culture, super pleasant and respectful but also fast-moving and agile. I think very highly of my coworkers and enjoy working with them and learning from them.

Cons: This is probably obvious, but working in the emergency medical space means that causing bugs can be extra stressful. But, the flip side is that the successes feel extra good.

Pros: There are lots of incredible challenges to solve.

Cons: Bad management, poor leadership and high turnover. No professional development or career path plus crazy startup hours.

Pros: I received great coaching from experienced colleagues.

Cons: - Too much focus on gender balancing elevates ineptitude, and management does not care about operational level staff. Reports of back injuries and psychological stress are rampant across distribution centers in Africa.
