Bad at all levels

Pros

I think there are some good people at the management level, but they don’t see how bad some of their peers are.

Cons

The company is poorly run at every level. The culture is all about jumping through hoops for management and showing utter disrespect for lower level workers. They’re facing insolvency due to poor decisions. PTO is combined with sick leave. People mention cheap healthcare as a pro but that’s only for single coverage. For a family, the cost is outrageous. People are placed in management roles without any experience or training managing people and it shows. Run, don’t walk, away!

Horrible and getting worse

Pros

Cheap healthcare, work from home, that is literally all

Cons

Almost 1000 people were laid off in 2023 due to bad business decisions made by CEO and upper management. Employees lose livelihoods and jobs so Marc Katz can keep his privileged lifestyle running. Management doesn’t listen to employees, upper management plays favorites constantly, unclear expectations and constantly changing goals and procedures, new platforms and tech are launched before they are functional, pay never goes up no matter what you do, upper management makes empty promises constantly, no real diversity at higher levels, saying it’s a community and then lying to employees and cutting their livelihoods out from under them with no warning. Layoffs are being announced as new outsourced teams are being brought on. Laid off employees received emails with suggested budgeting tips within an hour or being told that they don’t have a job anymore.

Your input is sincerely appreciated as it plays a key role in how we evolve our approach. Although we have provided significant severance support and extended healthcare coverage to help those impacted, we realize this period has been challenging. Rest assured, your observations will be passed along to our team. We encourage you to connect with us for any further feedback you would like to offer at inkerfeedback@customink.com.

Pros

Heath care, breaks, and snacks.

Cons

- Unreasonable sales goal, that will prevent you from getting your bonus. - Will have employees working in store alone. - Will change your sales goals without notice. - Outdated sales strategy. - Does not meet turn around on Rush orders, customers will blame because you are the face if in at store level. - A lot of issues in the production level: product done incorrectly, and incorrectly shipping. - No accountability from management - Diversity is only on the store level, and not in upper management
