Pros

The stock has been doing well so comp is about it

Cons

Our CEO who can’t keep his mouth shut during quarterly shareholder meetings is insistent on following other Fortune 500 CEOs on his RTO stance instead of actually making Chewy a great place to work. He has such a way with words: “All team members will be in the office 3 days a week, but don’t worry we only plan to go up to 4 days a week starting next year, not five”. What a joke. The company is super concerned about margins being a public company but thinks expanding its office space is the way to go rather than dumping it. Most teams are spread across all four offices, so the toted “collaboration benefit” and “non zoom first approach” just isn’t there.
