Pros

Fun products, interesting marketing, some nice people.

Cons

There isn't work life balance. There's late nights, weekends. Upper management does not respect family time, vacation, sick; anything. The cliques are ridiculous. Some long term employees are so intimidated by new employees and talent. It's impossible to do the job you're hired for when you work with major control freaks. It's never good to be in an environment that doesn't share information to learn the business and promote growth. Upper management roles are filled with under qualified people. If your friends with senior management, your in...especially if you served in the armed forces. There's definitely the 'cool kids' syndrome in senior management. You have to bust your butt to prove your trustworthy, competent, and play up to the longtimers who feel they're in a position of power. If you like overwhelming stress and work 24/7, this is the place for you.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
