Pros

Nice Product To Sell Everyday

Cons

After the re-org, the significant other of a prominent employee (who worked VERY part time and only on customer service based account openings) was given the company's largest toy account.

Pros

Most people who worked here were really good people, dress was casual even before Covid and we worked hard but did laugh a lot. But it all changed this year when the leadership changed. Most of us didn’t even realize it was happening until everything changed.

Cons

I get that the new people care about profit. It’s normal & I guess we weren’t very profitable before. But we used to care a lot more about people, & now we don’t. So many of my work friends were let go & most were here much longer than me. And how are they supposed to find a new job during Covid? And they didn’t even give them time or money or insurance until they figured it out. Why would anyone want to work for bosses like that? I’m sure they’ll sell the company & get rid of all of us & not care. I’m going to stay here for now but leave as soon as I can find a new job. I’m sure they won’t care anyway.

Pros

Causal Dress code but you are expected to live there. I guess pay was ok but its a 49 hour work week.

Cons

Everything terrible benefits, no work life balance, long hours. Look at these current employees excited about the day after Thanksgiving off?? Run and run fast.
