Pros

1. Leadership. Our CEO is vastly different from our previous leaders. She meets with the entire company every single week and gives us the chance to ask her and the management team anonymous questions. I can't think of any other CEO who does this and it's really, really powerful. 2. Company growth. The business (with the exception of some parts of the company) is growing at a strong clip. 2020 was a really, really strong year for the consumer business. It feels good to work for a company that's doing well in a tough COVID economy. 3. The people. Everyone here is smart and willing to help you. I really feel like everyone here is working their hardest (which is why people are feeling burned out in some cases) because they care so deeply about their coworkers and the brands.

Cons

1. There are some people who have been here a really long time and who are stuck in their ways. I believe they are slowly fading out of the company but it's taken a while and they can sometimes be roadblocks. 2. Priorities do seem to change often. Which leads to a lot of burnout. People are working really hard, long hours.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
