Pros

Working from home, nice water machine.

Cons

Poor leadership. Merchant team lead with no vision, no strategy and no guidelines for career progression and growth. Toxic culture, petty and passive aggressive coworkers. Employees are negative and seem to be unhappy and overworked. No room for growth, but expected to work many hours and going above and beyond for little to no reward.
