Pros

health benefits started great, went downhill. Salary and bonuses were good for customer service type job.

Cons

management wasn't very experienced. felt like they were threatened by lower level employees with more management experience. micromanaged every part of the day. management was also based on whatever the current popular trend on the market. HR was either great or terrible. the workforce was cliquish and felt like high school. training was ok, but things changed frequently and the role outs were never smooth. suggestions were ignored. management didn't want to hear about problems. quarterly reviews were given, but no incentive to actually tell the truth. company gave out "perks" basically in order to bribe employees into temporary contentment.

Pros

Good benefits and diversity initiative at the time.

Cons

The company lied about what the job was. A "community building local representative" for their brick and mortar stores ended up just being a cold calling job and taking incoming calls for other stores. No room to move up. The management was the worst I ever worked for. Weird rules where they signed the lease, including someone having to stay in the store in inclement dangerous weather. Most of the "old school" employees I came into contact with drank the Kool Aid in a weird way that left no room for criticism. I left in 2022 and have been watching the rating here fall for all the years since. Could have been a great company but I wouldn't ever give them my energy now, as an employee or customer.
