Pros

Seriously, it is an awful company.

Cons

I could go on all day. They punish you for using your PTO. Being paid on time is the outlier. The owner runs payroll, and he can't be bothered to do it when he's supposed to. He simply doesn't care. And if he's on vacation when it's time to do it, you don't get paid, sometimes up to 6 days after you're supposed to. Management will. not. listen to any advice or ideas you have to solve a problem. Then, when everything inevitably goes wrong, they'll use your initial ideas as though they were their own and you will receive no credit. If middle management is causing slow down in the warehouse, and you go to someone higher up to find a solution, you will be punished and absolutely nothing will change. There's nepotism, and higher up's girlfriends will get hired and will get promoted over you in half the time you've been there. People have started physical altercations and used racial slurs, and are still there. They will not have your back. One hispanic delivery driver was verbally accosted by a customer, being called derogatory remarks. The CEO's response? Making everyone in the warehouse do another background check. They consider snacks a "perk", and when you complain about not getting paid, etc., they'll use the snacks to lord over you as a way to get you to stop complaining. We're talking crackers and lunch meats here. And the dichotomy of how the warehouse is treated vs. the retail store sales people is absurd. The sales people are treated to lunches, to dinners, given presents, raises, etc. The people in the warehouse are treated terribly, and do 3x the work. Bottom line is this: this place is riding a bubble. Once it bursts, they've done nothing to prepare themselves for it, because they honestly don't seem to have any idea what they're doing. It's going to get bloody, and they have no sense of loyalty, so they're going to lay off anything and anyone to stop the bleeding. I would absolutely pass.

Pros

I have worked here over 2 years and have moved up twice already. Hard work pays off. My managers have all been good. Owners have been nice and helped me out twice when I needed it. No questions asked.

Cons

There isn't any down time. We probably need to hire more people. Always have too much to do.

Pros

I learned a lot on the technical side of things from my direct manager. There was a good sense of humor in the office and people were, for the most part, supportive of one another. The content team seems to be on an upward journey. Very good group of people, if you stay long enough you're basically family. There is a lot of potential here, I just hope they use it.

Cons

There is a lot of gossip, unprofessionalism, inappropriate jokes, chatrooms made to complain about co-workers or managers, and the current location is only cleaned once a week (they are going to a new location in 2019, hopefully it'll be cleaned properly with the amount of employees there are). Management tries to be your friend, which in most cases ends up making them look like liars because there is a lot of talk and little action. The employees in content are over-worked, especially management which in turn gives everything a sense of urgency and anxiety. There is a well-known fear of the CEO, he may know your name but people talk about the couple of times he has fired people over disagreements. Leadership has a tendency to drop random projects they thought up over the weekend on the content team when their plates are already completely full, they are expected to add new projects and keep the same timelines for everything else.
