Pros

None unless you thing working in a sweat shop is good

Cons

If you don't know what your doing go work for Zappos. They have so many employees that have no idea how to do their job. It amazing that they can turn a profit. Upper management doesn't communicate to the employees. Zappos uses their culture as an excuse to hire or fire for not being a culture fit. Working there is like walking on egg shells, always thinking if you say and do something will it be viewed as anti-culture and will you be fired for that. If anything I'd say it's more like a cult than a family.

Pros

In the beginning of my time at the company, there were so many positives. I struggle to find a single one, now.

Cons

Everyone from old Zappos quit or was forced out and replaced by people who have clearly never had a job before, yet get paid way more than I do. Leadership is scarily terrible. I went to HR on leadership many times but they didn’t care and told me I was the problem for enjoying the “old Zappos”. I am not allowed to list specific names in my review or else “new Zappos” remove it, but do not join marketing for LACK of experienced, smart, and kind hearted leadership.
