Pros

AE Compensation is great if you come from outside the company and the health care benefits are terrific too. The people who work in NYC office as well as the Distribution office are all there to help you when you need it and help make your job easier. The heritage and company philosophy are feel good true stories and the product is one you stand proudly behind.

Cons

Management teams are ruthless! Emails sent to you all hours of day and night as well as every day of the week including Sundays and holidays. You are expected to work on holidays or asked too at the last minute even though they are company paid days off. ** Everything is urgent and last minute with this team. You are constantly given additional projects that are due ASAP with the expectation of getting your current projects and objectives done timely. It's very hard to be organized or prioritize your business with such poor planning from your supervisors, however that said, its usually because poor planning came down corporately from the top. ** Lack of respect for your personal life as outlined above. ** Compensation if you are promoted from inside the company is very weak. ** High turnover rate.

Pros

I've had a really great experience, and it's easy to see why the company is certified as a Great Place to Work! The hybrid policy makes such a difference in supporting work-life balance, and I really appreciate the trust and flexibility it gives us. The benefits package is also great - really strong 401k with company match, generous leave policies for parents, wellness incentives, and even an extra day off to celebrate your birthday. Also can't forget the amazing gratis program and discounts on products. There are also a ton of learning and development opportunities to support professional growth within the company.

Cons

None major to note - like any fast-paced company, there are really busy seasons, but the work environment is really supportive and helps to balance it out!
