Pros

Benefits are really good. Employee discount is nice if you order from the website a lot.

Cons

All the 5 Star reviews are either fake or blowing smoke. The lack of communication in this company is REAL, you learn more from watching youtube people talk about your company than you do from corporate. The company used to be open with communication and celebrate new ideas and products, now unless you are in on the meeting you have no idea what's going on until it happens. The CEO either has no idea what's going on or simply doesn't care. Tons of money is being dumped into automation for the shipping warehouses but no development work to make them work to max efficiency. It's like spending $10,000 on a new tv that only has 1 working channel. The company can't seem to figure out how marketing works and instead of pushing their own product which has the highest profit margins instead pushes competitor products which either makes very small profit or nothing at all. Instead of jumping on the hot trends of what customers want they often wait too long to act and sit on mountains of product that will never sell. All of this equals why the company is consistantly laying off employees and shutting down warehouses every year. They can't sustain orders or customers. Year over year they lose more and more customers and haven't shown growth since 2015. If you are looking for a temporary job then Bodybuilding is the place to be, but if you are looking for a career then make a hard pass as this company will struggle to be around in the next couple of years.
