Pros

$300 of free Nespresso Club credit each quarter.

Cons

Middle management isn't allowed to manage people effectively in this exceptionally top-down corporation. This allows for a toxic environment to develop, and leads to really unhappy employees. I was recently "let go" following a minor incident that could have easily been solved with a simple discussion with my manager. But because of fear driven by a weak leadership team, it escalated straight to HR. I never had a chance, or a discussion with my manager. "Low class." Do yourself a favor and look beyond the shiny branding and movie star commercials. Take it from those who know, and look elsewhere for employment.

Pros

Good benefits, Great product, Some great people left at the company, Strong backing from Nestle, Good stepping stone for your career

Cons

Used to be a very close company with family values, where employees trusted and love their management. Now it is a bit different - management runs the company using fear and show no loyalty to its employees.

Hello – Thank you for your review and comments on our great perks. Although Nespresso USA is a fast-growing company, I strive to demonstrate trust and respect for all employees with whom I interact on a regular basis. Many employee events such as Town Halls are scheduled throughout the year allowing the ManCom team and myself to stay connected with the teams. Since I am unfamiliar with the situation you are referring to, I invite you to share your feedback and concrete examples with us by contacting our confidential employee help-line at 888-424-2409. We will certainly review any specifics you can provide and always improve what has to be improved. Thank you for your comments. Guillaume Le Cunff President @Nespresso USA

Pros

The coffee is excellent quality

Cons

Extreme politics. Management sleeping with employees and then promoting them. They have no understanding of the U.S. market. I worked for them for over 5 years and had the 2nd highest sales nationally and was threatened to be fired every day during the entire time I worked for them. They play favoritism unlike anything I have ever witnessed. Their performance requests are off the chart. During the time in which I was with the company the average length of time a sales rep would work for the company was 8 months; which was about the lengthy of time it took to look for and find a new job. I has 30+ years of experience in sales and I would recommend staying as far away from this company as possible.
