Pros

Some of the people there are absolutely amazing. The benefits are good but expensive (35 to 40% taken out of each check). The merchandise and food discounts are good. If you work in the right department, they will look out for you.

Cons

I did not have a good experience being trained. The lady who was supposed to train me let me know she didn't like to train. She even e-mailed management to ask to not train me.

Pros

There are some great, inspiring, and passionate people who work there, but none of them are in leadership positions.

Cons

Leaders aren't held accountable for KPIs or poor behavior. Decisions are made by forum/committee/council, so there is no clear ownership or guidance. The Service Office/HQ leaders look down on the store and fulfillment center teams, making decisions based on assumptions rather than taking time to understand the reality on the ground.
