Pros

- great benefits - decent culture - some really great people work here - free snacks, coffee, and beer - great location

Cons

Unfortunately, they set you up thinking this place is going to be amazing. I was completely lied to in my interview on what I would be doing. They pay you WAY less than you should be making and there is absolutely no growth. They only grow the same people over and over off of if they like you. I worked 60-80 hour work weeks for them to just hire people above me and take the jobs I liked doing away. The office is extremely crowded and no space. They do not care if you grow in your career at all and if your skill set grows. The managers do not care to manage and just about their own career. I could go on and on and if you actually care about growth and learning in your job, do not come here.

Pros

Free Food is number 1! We have a test kitchen right in the office so there is always test meals up for grabs and the teams always has samples from vendors up for grabs. The discount on the box is pretty great. Depending on the team you work on, they do hang out outside of work, but really depends on which team. The office space overall is really cool, startup, beer and cold brew on tap.

Cons

The office is so cramped at this point everyone is on top of one other. Some people do not even have their own desk space and just float around to open spaces. The management here is probably the worst I've every seen. They are so concerned about making money they are willing to throw some really great employees under the bus to save themselves. Team turnover is pretty high and the people they're hiring are not working out. They are hiring individuals who are not qualified for positions and are letting employees who are incredibly hard working people struggle under these poor choices. It's really sad to watch this company fall apart in such a short amount of time. There's 0 growth on certain teams. Most upper level employees are outside hires. Don't expect to go very far here.

Pros

Pretty much just the benefits

Cons

It wasn't so bad when I started, but after a few weeks we had no in-house manager so the Denver manager started watching over us. He has zero management skills/experience, only cares about how well he does and doesn't want to help you or see you succeed, and literally bullies you if you aren't performing up to his standards. His so-called "training tips" are extremely subjective and gets mad if you don't pitch exactly how he tells you to. You drive nearly 30-45 minutes to each event and aren't compensated for driving (they will lie to you about this in the interview and say "it's possible"), the event coordinators have NO idea what they're doing and never schedule enough events for us or even properly coordinate with the sites and half the time the places don't even know we're coming that day. I have no idea why they're opening new offices for this brand ambassador program when half the offices don't even have managers or are established yet. There are so many growing pains and issues with this program that corporate turns its back to... Take my advice and run far FAR away from this job.
