Pros

Great growth opportunities, fun products, nice hard working people around you. Most customers are in a good mood when they come in because we deal with the products that they enjoy using, so it is up to use to make sure that they have a great experience when they come in.

Cons

There is a disconnect between corporate managers and employees and the people in the stores. Way too much to do with way too little resources.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
