Pros

Awesome people work in the dispensaries, good place to learn the basics.

Cons

When Curaleaf bought Swell everything went downhill. All the good people were either fired, have quit, or are actively job searching since they hate this place so much. Unrealistic sales goals are placed on the store teams, and then you're put on a performance improvement plan when you can't reach said goals. I've worked for a lot of big companies in my day, so I get it- upselling is nothing new- but usually theres a district mgr or someone who visits the stores to coach & develop people. Not here- everyone at the corporate offices sit in their ivory tower all day- there's no personal engagement, no effort to help teach or train staff. Swell cared about it's employees and customers- the higher ups at that time realized THAT was the key to success. But not Curaleaf- the only thing they care about it the fastest way to make a buck. The quality of the product continues to decline and when you add that to higher prices & lackluster promotions, well it's a no-brainer on why customers are spending less and/or not returning at all. Oh and btw, forget about ever being promoted to a corporate position- this is the good ole boys club- fake positions get posted with no intention of ever hiring good quality people that actually have experience.
