Disorganized business with poor leadership

Pros

Benefits are fairly priced.

Cons

If you enjoy being left in the dark, this is the place for you. Grossly unprofessional upper-management sets multiple teams up for failure with vague, ever-changing direction, expectations, and vision. Lacking strategy and real-world experience leads to blatantly ripping off competition without any real investigating, understanding, or identification of true objectives. While this company is small, employees are broken down to a number and forced to stand in line. Turnover is incredible - the revolving door is nearly a blur as many are hired and choose to leave quickly or are let go. Restructuring has led to many very recent layoffs and downright pitiful morale. My advice? Trust the reviews on indeed/glassdoor and RUN. This is a sinking ship.

Pros

None that I can think of- very unorganized company.

Cons

Before the buy-out, nepotism was rampant. Absolutely no fairness to employees unless you were "within the conclave" very bizarre work environment.

Pros

Everyone else is unhappy as well so you will not feel alone.

Cons

There is no organization. Everyone goes around in a circle blaming each other. You will actually be told that the company does not care about the customers being upset because they will just focus on going and buying the competition. There is no leadership especially in Customer Service. The current management team has never been in any form of management prior and that is visible by the lack of focus and lack of accountability. You will be much more successful at finding out what is on sale at Kohls than when the manufacturing team will have product ready or the warehouse will actually ship an order. My experience has been when seeking answers to an issue that sadly the reply is based more off of how upset the customer is instead of an answer to find an overall solution so more customers would not become upset. The management team at this company has made me see that leadership is not something everyone has within them and that some people should say no to leadership roles because you are ultimately hurting the people who you depend on most; especially when you show lack of concern, lack of empathy or lack of interest.
