Pros

- Flexible schedule. - Telecommuting permitted. - Super happy management . - Free health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance. - Free lunch provided daily. - Excellent outings with management. - Excellent parties.

Cons

- Excessively/fake super happy management. Too easy to see that it's just Kool-aid (all sugar and water; no content). It's frowned upon to stop drinking the Kool-aid. Drinking the Kool-aid felt mandatory. - Poor communication about projects and company direction between headquarters in Las Vegas and remote office in Shepherdsville.

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.
