Pros

The company offers great time-off policies. Great medical insurance plan. Flexible schedules.

Cons

The company did not have an organized set of goals that the store could accomplish for each quarter. Many of the employees who worked for this company were not given compensations for their hard earned work. Very low trust employees and the culture of the organization. Work/life balance philosophy also was not well balanced.

Pros

Good work-life balance and benefits.

Cons

What was once a pro for culture has now become a con. Uncertainty due to massive layoffs. Remote work has been largely eliminated, and thus flexibility has decreased signficantly. Offshore and AI initiatives to reduce local US workforce. Although collaboration is encouraged, departments are siloed and operate independently which causes significant inefficiencies costing the company millions of dollars. Diversity is also lacking in a number of departments. Over reliance on external consultants instead of leveraging internal expertise.
