Pros

Market District is a fun environment to work in--fellow team members were passionate about food and worked hard at their jobs.

Cons

Management did little to promote advancement of qualified employees. I worked on a team where most of my peers were college grads who could have been doing a lot more than stocking shelves!

Pros

8 to 5:30 is actually a reality here. Work Pace is easy to medium paced. They lay a lot of emphasis on safety and if you're a salaried employee you get unlimited sick days. nice quiet area where building is situated, subsidized cafe food at office

Cons

Incompetent upper management who has ZERO contact with people of lower staff or entry level/ mid level positions. There is too much politics in terms of who is promoted how they are promoted and about the next steps. Everything is a freaking secret inside this company. The Directors and Sr. Directors are FAR from being leaders... they are not even good managers, they are just day-to-day firefighters who are bogged down by conflicting targets and company missions. The owners are so high up sitting in their ivory towers that they have NO clue as to what is going on down below. They talk all global bullcrap about big issues and the lower level managers are NEVER implementing any of it. Or are simply unable to. This place sucks...do not work here, there is NO concept of positive motivation. Just constant negative feedback all the time that can make you feel like the biggest loser in the world. This company thrives on crushing people's morales.
