Pros

A discount on the product sold (Note: sometimes doesn’t apply or in the end you ultimately pay less as a customer)

Cons

No benefits of any kind for part time associates, no paid time off, no work life balance (if you have open availability prepare to work every weekend and holiday, no exceptions) , and no clear path for advancement

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
