Pros

Casual environment. Nice workplace with gym. Focus on healthy living. Good benefits, part of your health insurance is paid if you participate in healthy living. Balance work-life environment.

Cons

CEO Larry Gilbert has all but abandoned his company by moving himself away from corporate headquarters. What he has left behind are non-qualified leaders full of empty promises and fake smiles. Morale is low. Communication is non existent. Systems/Data Integrity are either broken, out of date or not applicable to the company model. No structure. No training. They desperately cling to what they believe is a company culture but it only takes a new employee a few weeks to realize that "culture' means a ping pong table in the backyard. Pay is well below competitive in the work force with no chance of upward growth. Leadership has no interest in your future goals.

Pros

Larry Gilbert is an inspiring CEO. He'll challenge you to go above and beyond, to go forward with courage, and he cares about his people, partners and patrons! Competitive pay, flexible hours, stores are operated in fun locations, and autonomy in our roles. Company tries to rollout contests, motivation, prizes thru a peer elected culture council. There is a lot of freedom to speak with different departments and people without having to go thru a regional or middle person. If I need to talk to a buyer, I can simply pick up the phone.

Cons

It can be difficult to move "up". Company needs to work on training programs. It's up to store teams (managers) to rollout company contests or new policies. That can be not done as well as it should.
