Pros

Can't really think of one positive thing to say. The people are nice and they have a big building. I guess that's it.

Cons

This place is by far the worst company in existence. Let's discuss management first. The owner has threatened to throw people out of a window, made fun of people's weight, belittles people, then turns around and calls himself a Christian after cutting people's pay, or just eliminating the possibility for a raise. I know some sales people that lost at least 20% compared to the previous year but when current year growth is applied it's more like a 40% drop. I just heard they restructured the company and people that made 65-70k last year were deemed as insignificant sales people and forced into customer service roles making half that amount. They've also fired people the week before Christmas multiple years - heartless. So finally a new CEO comes in, but nothing changes because the owners son remains the COO and runs inside sales. It's basically Wolf of Wall Street or Boiler Room. Let's just say if a drug test was given to everyone at this place...I'm pretty sure 30% of the employees would be fired - unless you're related to the family or in the inner circle. Management and employees were asked to write positive reviews on here to counter balance the negative reviews. Stay far away! For those of us that have experienced it and gotten out.....the grass is in fact greener.

Pros

The marketing department has tremendous opportunity for growth and professionalization. There's a genuine long runway ahead to establish more formalized processes, build structured systems, and elevate marketing practices across the organization. The foundation is there—it just needs intentional development and strategic implementation to reach its full potential.

Cons

Executive leadership lacks internal alignment and communication. There's a disconnect between departments where decision-making isn't coordinated, resulting in siloed efforts and duplicated work.

Pros

There are a number of genuinely talented, smart people across functions, and I learned a lot from the colleagues around me.

Cons

Prospective applicants and those interested in acquiring the company may want to read the reviews here with a heavy dose of discernment and skepticism. A number of the recent positive reviews appear to have been at the encouragement of management and HR, and the timing seems connected to the company preparing for a sale, so they may not reflect the typical employee experience. Based on my own time here, I would not recommend the role to anyone who prioritizes their wellbeing, meaningful work, and work-life balance. The environment took a real toll on mine. The organization is top-heavy, and leadership's attention often seems directed at the wrong priorities. Leadership also protects the wrong people and has little insight into how stretched most teams are, often with few resources. Many talented people stay mainly because of the promise of a future equity or stock payout rather than the work itself, which points to a retention problem rooted in incentives rather than genuine engagement.
