Pros

Employee discount PTO Summer Fridays

Cons

Unrealistic expectations No strategy No work life balance at all Working from home isn’t the norm, only if you can’t get your job done in the average 10 hour day— then the suggestion is to just bring your laptop home with you (sorry, what?) The hypocrisy of their “mental health awareness” initiatives — if they really care about that then maybe reevaluate workloads, the crazy hours, and the non existent work life balance.

Pros

Good employee discount Fun environment, sometimes

Cons

Upper management is completely incompetent Managers are hired or promoted only because they know someone and not because of their work ethic Everyone lies about bonuses, promotions, and raises They tell you what they want you to hear to get you and then don’t follow through with promises They said stores bonus every month when they do not. Which is part of the pay cut you take when you’re hired
