Yesterday this news went air, Poshn has raised $4Mn in a pre-series A funding round and trust me working for this company holds a true spirit of enthusiasm for its employees that caters to the day-to-day challenges that comes with a great growth curve line. 8 months down the line working with Poshn, I can highlight the potential that a startup holds for an employee : 1. Accountability, Responsibility & Ownership that make an employee well-versed in something that he or she is handling, you will be given a business piece to work & develop completely on your own taking challenges on a daily basis to sail your boat in the growth storms. 2. Your Impact and Visibility, In startups, your contributions can have a direct and visible impact on the company's success that makes you believe in yourself & your decisions, which I feel is important for building great self-confidence throughout your life. 3. Startups often encourage experimentation and risk-taking as part of their culture, which mainly focuses on the employee's efforts and ideas, no worries if you fail at something, there are "n" number of things waiting for you to succeed, Here the founder's support and encouragement paves the way for you to get up and try again with the other stuff. Of course, you're working for someone's dream to make something big, but while going along this "path", somewhere this path only teaches you to realise your dream and the enthusiasm to tackle each and every challenge that the founders already doing to make something Big. Kudos to Bhuvnesh Gupta & Shashank Singh for the Poshn's success and let's make the wholesale trading seamless. #poshn #funding #startups #placetowork #success
