Mangomint | $55,000-$60,000
Steph's Notes:
You know what, Mangomint gets points for having a hella-focused mission and vision statement and a near-gender-balanced senior leadership team.
These aren't the best-written job duties I've ever seen, but at least I feel confident a real person wrote them, and that's something.
Enjoyment in working on difficult-to-solve problems, even in stressful situations
It's not that I think salon and spa operations can't be stressful, I just always wonder why companies think that customers' stress must always transfer to customer support teams.
As someone who's both worked in what would be considered highly stressful fields and led teams, I know that doesn't have to be true, so it's frustrating to see this so often in job descriptions.
Overall, though, this job seems pretty straightforward, the benefits are fine, and the pay is good for a fairly entry-level remote role. Nice to see a solid Eh, It's Probably Fine for this week's issue.
