Pros

-great , chill coworkers -flexible hours (i’m sure this depends on your store/manager tho)

Cons

-one of the most heartless upper managements ever… -they don’t care about you. it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been with the company or what your numbers are -the $9 plus 3% (if ur lucky) commission you make is NOT worth what you have to deal with -this company will probably not exist in a few years it’s so badly managed

Pros

- Plenty of capable individual contributors doing real work. - The brand and the business itself are legitimate — the problems are organizational.

Cons

- Senior leadership is politically driven rather than outcome-driven. Strategic initiatives stall out, and leaders spend more energy assigning or shifting blame than actually diagnosing and fixing problems. - Some parts of the org operate on deference to the top. Honest assessments get softened into whatever narrative leadership wants to hear, which makes real cross-functional work difficult. - Senior leaders do not consistently advocate for their own teams. When things get political, self-preservation takes precedence over backing the people underneath, and capable managers end up exposed.
