Pros

A great starting job for some experience

Cons

Not much room for growth outside of speciality teams, and a Team manager position. Most Operations managers are outside hires. Chewy employees rarely if ever reach that level. The few that do are very subpar. Most team managers are lack luster at best. They do not care and most agents are shuffled around quite often so why would they. The company has started firing people due to its terrible business practices and after showing up half a billion dollar short on their expected revenue. This company was a great company and most of the Team managers you'll meet will privately admit to the lack luster effect that chewy once had, but they still believe in it. I have plenty of team manager get in and out of trouble due to attendance where any agent would be fired. Its sad very sad. Management has yet to have been held accountable, and shift the blame to the agents that they have. I have even had team managers admit to sleeping while on the job. Leaving work early and clocking out remotely so they can do other activities.

Pros

Used to have great chewy culture. Still able to see part of it in the engineers and middle and lower management

Cons

Hired a lot of Amazon left overs as leaders. Most of them don’t know how to run a large company with its own innovation. Amazon culture is famously toxic. Now chewy culture is overwritten with the same toxicity. Good innovated people are all leaving or look to leave. Yet new leaderships don’t even care. All they care is OP1 and OP2. Very one culture hiring focused.

Pros

You get to work in a fast paced company with a lot of smart people. Start up environment allows you to get involved in many tasks at once

Cons

Poor Leadership in terms of management of work hours etc. Every employee in the Supply Planning team is pushed till they completely burn out and lose interest in learning and being creative. Working 12- 15 hours every single day is the new normal in this company which has led to high attrition rates in the company. The upper leaderships needs to understand this and start making sure not to pressurize their employees to an extent that they just want to quit for good
