Pros

Flexible workstyle Beautiful building with gym, free lunch, free fitness trainers Basically unlimited PTO & excellent employee discounts including industry discounts Focus' on employee culture a lot - almost to the extreme but it's great This brand really loves it's employees. There is an abundance of training at every level, more than I've seen at any organization. It moves FAST and they expect a lot from people but the culture is better than anything I've ever seen or heard from other brands. Pay is not what tech breeds, but it isn't a tech company. The people are amazing!

Cons

Doesn't pay tech salaries, but it's not tech industry so keep that in mind. Recently pivoted to in office 4 days but makes sense as a brand that builds consumer goods that you want to touch and feel they should be in the office. Having people work together makes the culture better. I've seen a big change from pre-Covid when everyone worked together 5 days a week to post covid to now - there was a dip when no one was in the office and now that we've been back 3 days a week it's so much better. The vibe is fun and people work better together so I'm all for this back to the office! I love being in person working with my co-workers!!! It's only a con because I know a lot of people are not happy with it but I think that's only because they probably aren't working really hard. Really no cons that I can think of. It's the best place I've ever worked.

Pros

HQ and office space is fairly new and decent amenities Company does promote an active lifestyle and it's embedded in the culture Career advancement is possible as org is fairly flat, lateral moves are seen more regularly compared to other tech companies in the area Company has growth potential and healthy cashflows

Cons

Our standard monitors are way behind in quality (they need serious upgrade if we are to work full-days here for everyone not remote) Again, company is moving to full remote with flex Fridays, which is a mistake -- perhaps a kind of quiet layoff (Expect all kinds of resentment/employee drama to ensue]. You're expected to come to work but parking is not free; and HQ location isn't exactly easily accessible by public transit from all areas in the region Company compensation is average to below median Project work is demanding and often does require long hours
