Pros

Excellent health plan. Salary and hourly compensation is in line with market and title.

Cons

Toxic work culture. Unhappy employees at every level. Starts at the top and runs through the entire organization. They want to be Amazon, to the extent they treat their employees like Amazon treats its robots. Classic example of a grossly over-funded startup and young co-founders who think like arrogant teenage boys. Primarily male, ego-driven executive team. Culture extends to senior management where "leaders" are so paranoid, prideful and self righteous that they are disinterested in cooperating with one another for the greater good. Managers are treated like dogs and the most valuable to the organization do not stay. Those who do are simply hoping for the big IPO payoff. Hourly associates are overworked and miserable in what the company promotes as a "fun" workplace and survive by commiserating with each other. Turnover is off the charts. Smiles on all hands calls are disingenuous and bely the real life whip cracking, forget your work-life balance experience.

Pros

Supportive Regional manager for sites

Cons

Lack of Accountability (Passing the Buck): Decision-making often lacks ownership, resulting in frustration and confusion when problems arise—issues are shifted rather than addressed. Unrealistic Expectations with Reduced Labor Budget: Increased performance expectations paired with significant cuts to labor budgets leave teams stretched thin and unable to meet demands effectively. High Turnover Among Operational Associates: The combination of workload pressure and no up-word movement leads to frequent employee departures at the associate level. Burnout Among Site Leaders: Site leaders are overwhelmed by the demands of managing intense workloads with insufficient staffing and appropriate labor hours support, has led to burnout and diminished morale. Insufficient Support Structures: There is a noticeable gap between what is expected of employees and the support (training, tools, manpower) provided to help them succeed. Reactive Rather Than Strategic Planning: Operational strategy often feels short-sighted, with decisions made on the fly rather than through proactive, long-term planning.
