Pros

Work/life balance is good. Nice office.

Cons

My experience at Chewy was a waste of time. Many employees aren't happy. This is a startup that was acquired and still experiencing growing pains. Leadership issues run rampant here. People are in leadership positions that shouldn't be. There's a lack of transparency of company goals. Key leadership members micromanage everyone.

Pros

I am an artist and I get to do an art-related job. The schedule is flexible when things pop up. I get health insurance and 401k and a lot of free food, and there is free gym access in the office building. The people I work with are all generally very cool, friendly, and/or fun to work with.

Cons

The pay rate is below the industry standard for production artists. I am not able to afford a place of my own. I live with my parents and I work another job to supplement my income. I am basically surviving and able to pay all my bills, but I would not be able to live a full life on my own with the pay rate as it is now. The work culture portrays itself as progressive and inclusive place but it is the typical corporate toxic environment.
