Pros

Best industry leadership training. Excellent metrics for sales management and performance. Excellent pay.

Cons

Angry, deceptive, duplicitous, betraying management team. Lots of angry tirades filled with cursing and demeaning language. Threats and outward displays of anger were a continual part of 1:1 conversations. "High performance" culture was not defined and changed quarterly based on the business wanted to conduct layoffs. White employees were not fired for physically touching customers while persons of color were fired for "low performance" when they were outperforming other peers based on metrics. Leaders did not delegate appropriate tasks and then dishonestly used it as a performance issue. Peer employees regularly broke confidence by sharing confidential conversations with management leading to distrust in the workplace. These same peer-to-peer conversations were used in performance reviews. Leaders openly bullied employees in the presence of other employees. A business leader advocated dishonesty, and lying, when specific information was known but not readily available.

Pros

Remember, "Ohana" might mean family,....

Cons

....but read the fine print; there's clause that says, "Terms and conditions apply. Family membership subject to change due to prioritizing quarterly earnings."
