Pros

Fun and In-demand brand. Work-Life Balance Is fantastic.

Cons

No structure. No potential for advancement. Commission/Bonus structure is non-existent. Definitely on the lower spectrum on payscale compared to other companies. Too much micromanagement.

Update 5/5/2016: The Company was purchased in November 2014 (3 months after this review) and since that time, our new owners have completely invested in our existing brands, innovation, expanding our portfolio, and in our employees and their development. We're happy to share that these investments have resulted in: - Creating more structure and focus to our teams, without micromanaging. Instead, we've provided the framework for our employees to own their respective business areas and act as business entrepreneurs. We've received great feedback from our teams with this new way of working and will continue to listen to employee feedback to find an optimal mix. - Aligning bonus structures to reward individual performance with personalized key performance indicators (KPIs), metrics, and transparency. - Promoted more than 50 people into new roles. - Invested in employee growth and career progression by creating a Learning and Development department and started training sessions. - Added additional elements to our compensation packages to be competitive (and in some areas above) the market. As an example, we were an industry leader in creating a paid Parental Leave policy that exceeds individual state minimums! We are confident that the company has become more stable, successful and innovative since November 2014. We're always open to continued feedback and encourage all of our employees to speak with their manager or a member of leadership and share their thoughts so we can continue to become better.

Pros

Could make your own schedule, some of the people you work with are great! We got to participate in some great events! (If you create them from the ground up)

Cons

Direction and job description changes at a moments notice! Minimal training and direction from senior management. Yearly goals to make bonus were never communicated to staff. Even if your marked was up double digit growth in distribution and new accounts you still did not get a bonus.
