Pros

The benefits are decent, and the 401k match is excellent! The location of the corporate office is great with beautiful views right by big cottonwood canyon.

Cons

Nepotism runs wild! Unless you are in with one of the "pets" your chances of advancement are slim. The people who truly work hard and do their best often get overlooked by others who are incompetent just for the fact they are a friend or one of the "in" crowd. The environment is very much like high school. I have never worked for such and unprofessional, disorganized corporation. Departments compete against each other instead of work together for the greater good of the company. Also, the work/life balance is horrible. Long hours, low pay, no respect from other departments and the company does not do a good job at showing true appreciation for its employees.

Pros

Fast paced environment with LOTS of hands-on experience with many different tools. The people are the reason to stay, lots of smart and caring people, managers, and leaders towards the bottom of the food chain.

Cons

Upper Management has completely destroyed this company and gutted it. In my several years at the company, communication is as poor as it could be. Bonuses are promised and then not followed up on. RIFs happen far too frequently. It is abundantly clear that this company does NOT care about it's employees, and at the moment is almost seems like they are trying as hard as they can to get people to quit so they don't have to pay severances before acquiring more companies and moving headquarters to Texas. The culture in the days of Overstock was incredible, it made people excited about being able to work there. Now people are hanging on by threads, large teams are now carried on the backs of just 1-2 people without additional pay as we see co-workers get laid off left and right. It is not sustainable. Important things are being missed because there are not enough people to do the work, which will end up biting the company in the butt for compliance and finance reasons.
