Pros

Very friendly environment, able to wear what you want, the pay is extremely well. Everyone is laid back even management is laid back. CEO of the company even woks around to converse with employees. They strongly believe in work hard play hard the company always give company lunches and serve good food.

Cons

Really only hire for the season. So you will most likely never get a permanent position. They will call you again when the season picks up if you were a good worker but that's about it.

Thanks for your feedback and review. I apologize that we did not respond to your review sooner and hope that your experience working with UncommonGoods from January on has been positive. We’re glad that you have found our team both helpful and friendly, but are disappointed that your experiences here have been so negative. At UncommonGoods, we strive to change the way business is conducted by making sustainability a part of every decision we make. This keeps our focus beyond profit seeking and on making the world a better place for all stakeholders (our team, community, planet, and more). If you are still having the same concerns or issues, please do not hesitate to visit with our HR team. Anytime we fall short, we want to hear about it and, while we’d prefer to have someone speak to their manager or our HR team, we appreciate the opportunity to respond to this post.

Pros

Excellent training, Really nice supervisors, great discount, customer service is easier than at other companies because their priority really is customer satisfaction.

Cons

Most employment opportunities are seasonal for the Christmas rush, during the holidays sometimes the hours are really late/early in the morning.
