Pros

The people I worked with on the floor were great. My direct managers were invested in my education and development in the company.

Cons

After the company began reorganizing the culture really began to degrade. Many of the people who were promoted were wildly unqualified and ill suited to their new roles. Many of the people who were demoted were the long-time coworkers that had the institutional knowledge that made the place run.

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.
