Business Outlook

Pros

Completely on your own for running the business, making day to day decisions on employees (hiring and firing)

Cons

High pressure, high stress, little to no room for advancement. High turnover in the management ranks and the front line employees get almost no benefuts. You have unlimited vacation but never get a chance to use it. Micromanaged by every person above you unless things fgo wrong-then you are on your won.

Was sad to see the company change so much in one year

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of room to make your own decisions and think on your feet

Cons

When the price change occurred it was a cluster bomb that went off. Then it was announced the company was splitting to two (one DVD and one Streaming) and then it was announced none of that was happening. All the while customers were up in arms over this and we in management were always finding things out at the same time customers were so we had no time to prep our staff. Some very hard months for moral with our staff. Lost a lot of trust with our employee base in terms of management to subordinate relations.

Great salary, bad culture.

Pros

• Great compensation package • Free lunch • Free cell phone

Cons

• The company culture is very cold hearted, they let people go ALL THE TIME, sometimes for good reasons, most of the time not. • The environment is extremely political that makes it hard to focus on doing a good job. • A lot of employees are rather negative about the workplace and very open about looking for a job.
