Pros

They just remodeled. Nobody cares.

Cons

They spoke about taking a compassionate approach during the pandemic but now that they have everyone back in the office - that is definitely not the case. This is not the place to come to whether you’re an associate or part of the support staff. Many mid-level associates are disgruntled and leaving. Staff is unhappy as well. They are taking a very firm approach that there is no flexibility at this point during the pandemic. They need to have in-person control and it is sad that the pandemic hasn’t changed anything.
