Pros

There are still a few good people left there

Cons

Soooo many. This used to be a fun, energetic up and coming place to work, as they grew, they have become obsessed with metrics and KPI's and having to ask permission to go tho the bathroom . Profits have evaporated over the last few years, they are becoming a dinosaur quickly. Company practices ageism, though they will tell you differently. Underpays across the board in every department, great talented people stay awhile and then bolt to get paid market value elsewhere. Preaches family and values, though you'll be out if you miss time to take care of a loved one. For a ten year anniversary you will get a framed "Intersection of Love" picture (one of their items they sell), it has you name and theirs and dates when you started and the current year pointing onward. Zero comp for a decade of service, the picture costs the a few buck ,and the picture is creepy as well. Folks on the "A" side will do their best to avoid eye contact with you if you work in the warehouse or Customer Service. Managers are either clueless or clueless/manic depressive prone to outbursts at a pin-drop.
