Not a start up... so why act like one?

Pros

1. Hours- you really only need to work an 8-hour day. 2. Building location- HQ is in Back Bay 3. People are friendly

Cons

1. Compensation- As every other post mentions, the salary here is abysmal. 2. Career Path - there is no clear trajectory for new employees. Promotions are given to employees to entice them to stay (ie, Category Associate to Associate Category Managers). However, titles are pretty insignificant here as the title change does not reflect a change in responsibility nor a change in salary 3. Quick Employee turnover for those hired after 2010 - says a lot about employee satisfaction 4. If you are loud / distracting in the open office environment, you will be praised. It doesn't matter what is coming out of your mouth... If you make yourself heard, people will think you are doing a fantastic job.

Pros

If you are in the "know" you will go places. There are a lot of internal moves which gives you potential to explore different segments of the business. First job out of college adjusting to the real world can be hard, Wayfair is very laid back which made it easier at first.

Cons

As time went on the cons out weighed the pros. HR needs to step up or something bad might happen. I didn't see how poorly I was treated because this was my first job out of college. My first two managers loved me and promoted me and my third manager fired me because of "performance issues"....I was not given a written or a verbal warning. It's all about who you know rather than performance.

Pros

I've been here for almost three years and I love everything about my job and the opportunities that CSN has giving me. I'm young and already a manager for a 380MM+ company. Great things will happen to those who are patient and continue to work hard. The next 3-5 years will be the most exciting and CSN will be one of the most rewarding places to work for in Boston.

Cons

I love CSN Stores. I have nothing to complain about.
