Pros

- a do-good company - good place to learn the ropes because of size and age - lots of great people - HQ office loaction - career opportunities are decent (but only because of high turnover and push for low compensation)

Cons

- compensation (15-20% below market rate if you're working in SF) - work-life balance is a myth for many departments - crazy high turnover - leadership lacks the talent and gusto to make quick and effective changes; way too many layers of "leaders" - benefits are over-hyped; benefits are on par with any respectable company; the merch discount is great except that the product sucks so everything is 40-50% off to the public anyway - culture is stale and full of unhappy people (unbelievable how many people came to me and told me they wanted to quit after putting in my notice)

Pros

Good health benefits, some 401k match

Cons

12 hour shifts, subpar bonus', limited upward mobility as managers and upper management did not want to promote from within and risk operational change causing productivity decline
