I worked at Mt Baker Vapor full-time for more than 3 years

Pros

Company paid insurance, dental, vision, and life insurance. Additional benefits are affordable and generous. More flexibility in scheduling than most jobs. Clear path to advancement throughout the company for those who put in hard work. Some of the kindest, thoughtful and genuinely good people work here. This job is very much what you make of it - if you put in a little, like anywhere else, you will not get much out. Working here was rewarding for me, and no matter what I did, from a baseline customer service representative and above, it was not hard to take genuine satisfaction from my day to day activities. This is a company where you will see the owner working alongside the warehouse floor with you when it's crunch time, and get on a first name basis with nearly everyone you come across. Even though it has went from a smaller company to a more corporate, modern feel, it is still very much like a family. If you read some of the reviews here, it is easy to get lost in a sea of negativity. For some, it was not a positive experience, and that is life. I have worked jobs that didn't work out, like most poeple. I spent a good chunk of time here, and yes, things happened that I didn't like. Things happened that shocked me, that upset me, that angered me. As time went on, however, most of these issues were addressed, and it is, in reality, a job like any other, that is more or less what you make of it. It is a relatively young business in an industry that is constantly under attack, embroiled in controversy, and consistently evolving. It is no small task to run a company with this scope, let alone in an industry where politicians and special interests groups can end everything with the stroke of a pen. People own this company, and I think people forget that.
