Pros

The most diverse workplace I have ever been in and on average, people here have a very high EQ. The company has a vision I can get behind and I feel like my voice is heard and appreciated. UX research is taken extremely seriously here, unlike in some companies. And it's not just A/B testing; we do lots and lots of in-depth qualitative interviewing and are striving to get out into the field more and more, as well as running surveys and doing analytics on customer data.

Cons

Since the company is growing so fast, things are constantly in flux. But if you're entrepreneurial this won't bother you too much.

Pros

Health insurance/benefits are the best part of the job

Cons

-OL's and managers say that they are always there for you but usually, it takes a while to get a response from them on even the most simple question. If you're in a leadership position, lead by example, get your hands dirty and do the job that your associates do. -As a leader lead servantly, do what is ethical, even if it does not benefit you as a lead. This is how you gain trust in your associates and get them to want to work for you. -Overall, there is a lot that HQ needs to look at in the local markets in the eyes of leadership.
