Pros

I genuinely enjoyed working with my direct supervisor and many of my coworkers. The free alcohol was a nice perk. We were offered free IT training, team building exercises, wine and spirit classes. I got to work with a diverse group of state of the art technologies. Pretty good teleworking policy.

Cons

There was no work/life balance, we worked weekends, we were expected to come in early and stay late. The environment was suffocating at times. Employee surveillance was out hand . Everything you do is monitored including time clock utilization, bathroom breaks, internet usage. Upper management was very cliquey and primarily made up of Caucasian males, they don't seem to see a problem with that. Compensation was below average for the field.

Pros

Flexible hours, co-workers, work semi- independently.

Cons

NO job security! you can be let go anytime they want to do a "restructure". UNREALISTIC data driven goals, they're still working off COVID numbers and don't want to settle back down to reality, basically greed. Pay sucks, you can't get a place to live on your own with the compensation they offer, and the cost for the wear and tear on your vehicle is astounding, the competitors pay better. You're just a number that's micro-managed and they constantly let go of good employees that are making somewhat decent income for the work they put in and replace them with new ones that are paid significantly less with poor work ethics. It's a revolving door. There is no future for sales reps in this company as they are heading to e-commerce to eliminate actual bodies that physically go into stores and engage with owners and managers. How can this be a "best managed company" when there are constant labor disputes, strikes, layoffs, and restructurings? Use to be a good company to work for, once upon a time.
