      Worst company ever worked for

      Pros

      Autonomy to work. That’s it.

      Cons

      Clearly the HR division of this organization has spent a lot of time either creating or getting false positive reviews of this company. The company leads and its CEO are completely unqualified to be running advanced retailers. They manage to cave businesses just months after acquisition, laying massive amounts of people off. They never share strategy with the leaders of their divisions. All is done with same group of “CEO loyaltists” who simply do what Justin (CEO) says. Justin has had zero corporate retail experience or schooling for what he is overseeing. He hires finance and investment bankers to run product-oriented consumer businesses where they have no experience or history of success. He and his leadership team never take time to get to know the people in their acquired businesses. They treat them like widgets while many have much to offer in my experience with working with them. Again is a very fine line walked by tech guys leading retail divisions. Very thin. They need to be friendlier to people with legacy in the industry.

      Pros

      Freedom to work from home.

      Cons

      While the freedom to work from home is pretty great, due to lack of experience in management, this leaves people and teams working in isolated silos, not achieving potential due to lack of guidance. You'll learn very quickly the status quo at CSC Generation, but to offer a flavor, here's my timeline: - Month 1: Left to scramble for results to demonstrate worth - killed it! - Month 3: Achieved best results for portfolio brands in decades - Month 6: Launch new brand, consistent outstanding performance and feedback - Month 8: Promoted to oversee additional department - Month 8: CEO praises initiative in new department in company-wide email - Month 9: Deliver great results through adversity with new brand, launch store - Month 10: CEO praises most credible results the company has seen, while overseeing new department Month 11: Laid off as not spending enough time on original role I love a challenge. I love independent working as well as collaboration. I love problem solving. I love taking initiative to deliver on business objectives. But this place is truly an insane place to work. No guidance, feedback, help - watching people and teams being fired almost daily. You'll see comments on here regarding company growth - don't believe it! Acquiring companies, then laying off most employees is not true or organic growth.

      We are truly sorry that we had to part ways. Please understand however, that we tried our best to help you land your next role. In addition to providing a severance, we also highlighted your positive attributes when your new employer back-channeled us about your performance (despite the fact that you were not "killing it" as you mention). Regardless, we are pleased that you have found another position.

      Pros

      Like at any company, I got to work with some nice people. I'm really reaching here, but...casual dress code. Opportunity to work from home when you need it (depending on your position, but they were pretty flexible about your hours as long as you were getting your job done). You get to work closely with leadership. This job wasn't a fit for me, but I did enjoy being challenged every day. Don't take this job if you can't handle hard work.

      Cons

      This was genuinely the most miserable and confusing job I have ever had. Low pay and long hours, but they expect you to be excited about the position for the "career growth potential" despite the fact that they seem to have a problem holding on to employees. No work life balance, and they seem to think this is cool/a good thing. Lame downtown office with no parking or perks. I don't know what else to say - but the Austin job market is filled with so many better opportunities. I wouldn't consider this company unless you're desperate. Reader, keep in mind that this review is based on my experience a year ago. So it's possible they have improved in some ways.
