Pros
free ice cream at the office (ben and jerry's) and free product monthly
Cons
- CEO is way too involved (he has to approve copy and color of every single launch) and it creates a bottle neck (as he has to approve everything) and he changes his mind about launches whenever he feels, so the rest of the teams have to scramble to implement his whims. no one will stand up to him and the explanation "well the CEO said so" is not a good enough reason to not follow launch processes and create additional work for the employees, third party vendors, everyone. - cross-functional teams are quick to put responsibility/blame other teams - weird, cult-like mentality (actual quote from marketing - "we do such important work. we change lives."), i mean yes, people do make a living off the products we make but it's literally only face lotion, dude, chill out. - yearly raises are pathetic - no career growth or development
