Pros

Some really great people in the company who I will miss. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet them face-to-face.

Cons

— From my experience, it seems they OVERpromise and UNDERdeliver in terms of the company itself, training, transparency, opportunity, caring about their people, etc. — One “clothier” proclaims the sale is all just B.S. It makes me sad that product knowledge isn’t more enforced. Fortunately, many others in the company really do know their stuff. — From discussions with other former coworkers, it appears as if the company may have a pattern of not supporting employees who voice a workplace issue (particularly if you are a woman it seems) or even taking your concerns, experiences, or fears seriously, and instead points the finger back at you, despite you providing concrete evidence and having reported, and documented, multiple things prior to bringing it up to the company heads. — In my case, they actually acted illegally (yes, the illegality of every single action step has been confirmed by multiple lawyers) in response to the concerns and fears I voiced. Ultimately, I was put in a position where I felt I had no other choice but to quit. I loved my work, the clients, etc. etc. (I still greatly miss all of that) and I was succeeding. There were no plans on my end or theirs of me leaving (in fact, a few days before, I was being presented with great opportunities...) until I voiced my fears; that’s when everything changed. Unfortunately, while the list of illegal steps is definitely too long to detail here, let’s just say it’s a much bigger matter than they anticipate.

This is a great company for someone who is self-motivated and able to manage their time well. There is always an opportunity to learn from and connect with other clothiers within the company. The CEO and other members of the leadership team are supportive and generous with their time.

Cons
