Pros

great pay and coworkers, lots of incentives

Cons

Quality expectations are sometimes a bit over the top and over-analyzed. After being a great employee for over 8 years with lots of departmental training there really is no place to go. Pressure to cater to obnoxious and ridiculous customers.

Moving in the right direction

Pros

Good Salary, Excellent Benefits. I feel company bends over backwards to value its employees. The thing someone on here said about free food isn't true in Fort Lauderdale. Whether this is a pro or con or not depends, but this is a strait-laced conservative company culture. At the same time, they are easy going and tolerant. It's a little hard to describe how both of these are true until you experience it.

Cons

The company is moving in the right direction, but would benefit from jettisoning its owner's wacky views and direct mail strategies. The more they continue to target the average consumer rather than the person who thinks they're going to live to 150 by taking a lot of supplements, the better.

horrible working environment, some good people

Pros

Some great, dedicated staff although overall the turnover is much higher than other places I have worked. Typical workday is 8:30-5:30, with some flexibility depending on position. Casual workplace

Cons

The HQ building is dirty and dusty, so beware if you have allergies. Inside is very hot or very cold, sometimes on the same day. Located in a nasty neighborhood, so no errands are possible at lunch and you have to take an hour. On-site cafe regularly makes people sick, only fast food nearby. One refrigerator for everyone to use that is never cleaned out. The medical insurance is good for individuals but bad for families - lower cost insurance for kids on the exchanges. No paid maternity leave. No sick time - three "floating" days that must be used annually. Limited paid time off. Management can be clueless - after hurricane Irma staff were to report on-site at 11 am, one hour after the county-wide curfew was lifted at 10 am (no power, no school or day care, no working traffic lights and trees everywhere), People had to use vacation time to deal with the hurricane aftermath or return from evacuation - expect some hurricane common sense from a Florida company. The 401K match is low. Bonuses and raises are also low, so negotiate for a good base rate.
