Pros

Beautiful & great quality products. New age benefits which are great. The atmosphere can be fun. Lots of talented people who are eager and driven in the Business Services department. Not a difficult job. MOO was good to me.

Cons

MBS (MOO Business Services) doesn't practice what it preaches. For example - career progression, transparency, favoritism.... just to name a few. Lots of continuous changes to the roles and structure of the department, which is to be expected with a private company striving towards perfection and publicity, however I do not believe any of the changes are made with employee retention in mind. It seems when departmental changes are made, they want to weed out the more tenured employees who are used to a certain level of pay or style of work. This makes it hard to forecast your own personal future. I left MOO for personal reasons, as it was just not conducive to the lifestyle of a single mother when the workload increased and pay decreased because of poor forecasting... very stingy when it comes to working remotely- when the entire job can be done from home.

Pros

- People. I have had the pleasure of working with smart and friendly individuals - Office - it looks nice - Pace of work - it never gets stressful - Free food Fridays - always welcomed.

Cons

- Managers - most are simply incompetent. Promotions happen on the basis of friendships and not skills. The push for gender equality at leadership levels also adds to the incompetence - Strategy and planning - There is no clear strategy, only generic targets and inspirational stories. As a result, the actual planning and implementation of those visions is mostly left up to the teams. Teams led by those star managers mentioned above. What a mess - Working practices - People are not held accountable for slacking off or making repeated mistakes, maybe out of the fear of making them feel bad. The relaxed pace of work also means that things take ages to get done. Working at a normal pace makes you look like Superman - Performance reviews - absolutely worthless. Objectives are sometimes changed a week before review, mainly because you didn't get to do what you had planned for. If you look above, you might guess that it had something to do with bad managers, worse planning and slackers.

Don't work here

Pros

The company boasts about work life balance and free cake, food and beer but it doesn't make up for the way you're treated. Workers are not commended for what they do or paid for it. There is no career advancement unless you suck up and the manager likes you, very inappropriate relationships here and culture. It was fun and fluffy at first, but it's not long term centric nor is the pay. You can work the same job, get more respect and less drama elsewhere.

Cons

Managers are not experienced, it's a popularity contest and more like a high school cheerleading pep squad with much too much power. You're better off somewhere else the place is unprofessional and they cut your salary as much as they can. Work life balance is great but not if you pay your bills. There is no clear communication and when there is, it's not honest. They deflect real issues and don't give you a platform to raise anything without it becoming office discussion and drama. You're better off on food stamps then dealing with the toxic work culture that also lacks inclusivity and diversity. There are no people of color or minorities in management, at all.
