store discount early off time

Cons

6 am call time Disrespectful leadership Leaders taking our creative ideas and claiming as their own Leadership not doing their assignments and throwing them onto us Severely underpaid and over worked Want to paint walls, climb ladders and handing ceiling lights? It’s the job for you Leaders will make you change a room set then go in after you and rearrange it to their style No training whatsoever

Pros

I have a very empathetic and flexible manager. Although I do meet the requirement to be in office three days a week many others do not and don’t seem to suffer for it. My work can be challenging at times, but due to the slow pace of most things here I rarely feel overwhelmed.

Cons

This is, without equivocation, the most sclerotic organization I have ever been a part of. The management structure and reporting lines are inscrutable and even after 3 years I barely understand how my team fits into the larger picture. My job is a data role, and although getting access to data has improved somewhat, it is still one of my biggest blockers.
