Pros

The company has built a new, iconic campus with nice amenities. The stated goal is to make Overstock a great place to work, and there are several in management who take that to heart and strive to do right by the employees. At one time this company was a great place.

Cons

While the departure of the former president held promise, the departure of the acting CEO was a huge loss. The new, top-level leadership of the company is in general unskilled for the task, but rather represents a cadre of weekend buddies. Their demonstrated contempt for the concept of servant leadership has quickly destroyed morale in many departments. Those underlings who take their cues from these leaders have learned to be self-serving and disrespectful to the employee base at large.

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.
