Great place, nice people - Warehouse Associate Sock It to Me Employee Review

One of the core values of the company is to create a community of belonging and I think the entire company tries really hard to achieve this. It a small team that is highly collaborative, working from a place of mutual respect and achieving great results with limited resources.

It has been a tough year and a half that required several lay offs. The reduced staff has a large work load and a lean budget.

Dog friendly, laid-back office, nice people (mostly), but that was it.

The pros I listed were overshadowed by the intense abuse given to me by my manager. Keep reading reviews, I'm not the only one. I would avoid being alone with her, I wouldn't speak at meetings, I would call in sick if I knew something bad had happened and she was going to be in a negative mood. I really wanted to like my job, I really wanted to 'buy-in' to the culture they advertise, but it's all fake. A handful of the leadership at the company are given their role because they had been at the company for so long, but some have no experience or skills whatsoever for that position. This translates to dysfunctional planning, unrealistic goals, etc. HR never took mine or colleagues’ multiple complaints seriously, and they continue to allow horrible workplace abuse instead of protecting the multiple staff members who spoke out about it. So yes, everything I've said above has been shared with HR, the founder, and the new leadership, by me or a work colleague, with no action taking place. There is a new senior leader in place, the former sales director, who does have great experience and leadership skills. Hopefully they see the situation as it really is and finally does something about it.
