Pros

I am a recent hire who is so incredibly excited to work for a company like Funko! "Fun" is in the company's title and, it lives up to that. Any Company that regularly has representation at Comic-Cons is top rated in my book. The culture here isn't just fun, but exciting too. Not only do we work on pop culture stuff as work, but the vibe is electric. Some folks might think a company that makes toys and collectibles would be slow and boring, but it's not! The creative teams here have visions that are executed thoughtfully and quickly. I've found that a huge majority of Funko staff are friendly, helpful and easy to get along with. It makes coming to work something to look forward to. People care and that's very obvious from day 1. The employee slide and the retail store at HQ are pretty dang amazing. I've never worked at a company that had so much cool.

Cons

So far, things are off to a great start! A refreshing move from tech!

Pros

The team you get to work with and grow with is the best part of the job. If you’re into the product, the employee discount is solid I suppose.

Cons

Near zero chance for career growth with this company, within the retail store itself or moving up to corporate. The company has been subject to frequent layoffs and “restructuring”. The retail store has had three different general managers (so far). There are associates that have been part time for years, yet working full time hours, receiving no benefits. The retail store doesn’t utilize its workers properly. Good, solid workers have jumped ship completely due to burnout, being stepped on, management refusing to correct toxic workplace behavior, and selective coaching. You’re promised the opportunity to grow, but denied the development to make that a reality.
