Pros

Free lunch. You can drink alcohol and do drugs and get away with it.

Cons

I have worked in the warehouse building for over 2 years. The warehouse/fulfillment workers are in a separate location from the administration and tech workers. The warehouse workers are treated as unequal and unwelcome to the rest of the company. So much that we are technically employed by a temporary staffing agency, even those hired for full time. We get paid less than minimum wage (technically the warehouse is in Culver City, so although "Los Angeles" is a few blocks away, they get away with paying us at the California state minimum wage instead of the LA minimum wage). They do not offer opportunities for advancement or income growth. Only take this job if you are seeking a temporary, disposable position, because that is how they will treat you. Warehouse Supervisors and Management are a joke and highly unqualified and unskilled at their jobs. The grapevine states that they were hired through personal relationships with the executives, not due to qualifications. Basic benefits are missing for workers in the warehouse (Landmark location). We have no holiday pay or bonuses, which is difficult because they pay us extremely low wages. The health benefits are a complete joke - workers are better off on Medi Cal or Affordable Care Act plans. DISCRIMINATION: Men are entirely more likely to be promoted. When it comes to job positions where women are more qualified and have more experience VS men who have less experience, less seniority, and less qualifications, the men end up getting the job. This is not a one or two time thing, but a constantly occurring issue. Workers are often high and/or drunk. Workers call out and show up late regularly, but management is afraid to enforce any policies. SEXUAL HARASSMENT is a SERIOUS issue here and is not taken seriously. There is no discussion about sexual harassment despite multiple instances of women being physically and verbally assaulted. Every situation is swept under the rug by management. SUMMARY: If you are looking for a minimum wage (CA state minimum wage, not LA city minimum wage), temporary position, and you are a man, this place might be OK for a few months. Otherwise, STAY AWAY.

Pros

GOAT offers the opportunity to work on a well-known brand, and the remote environment was once a major benefit. Employees are generally given autonomy to manage their work, and there are opportunities to learn in a fast-paced ecommerce business.

Cons

The company has changed significantly over the past year. Following multiple rounds of layoffs, there has been an ongoing sense of uncertainty that has affected morale across teams. More recently, there has also been a strong emphasis on AI-driven efficiencies, which has left many employees feeling that cost reduction is prioritized over investing in people. Leadership often talks about innovation, but the day-to-day experience feels much more corporate than you would expect from a younger, trend-driven company. There isn't much emphasis on employee experience, culture, or professional development. Outside of standard benefits and holidays, there are few perks or wellness initiatives that make employees feel valued. The culture can feel transactional. Come in, do your work, and log off. The business has also faced meaningful external headwinds, and those challenges have created an even more cautious environment. Communication around strategy and the future could be more transparent, as many employees are left wondering where the company is headed.
