SharkNinja reviews

Working at SharkNinja was an appalling professional experience, and I know I am not alone in saying that. Trust the other 1 and 2 star reviews on Glassdoor - they paint and honest picture of the realities of working at SharkNinja. You will find that many of the highly rated reviews come from individuals who are early in their career, or worked at SharkNinja for a set short period of time. The cons of SharkNinja are countless.. here are a few: Subpar pay, will be expected to do far more than your job responsibilities without reward of promotion or salary bump. Many (not all) managers and directors are terribly under qualified to be leading teams, resulting in extreme micromanagement, poor communication, setting unclear expectations, and regularly prioritizing self-interest over team success. Incredibly stressful work environment -- meeting will consume all your time, no matter how much you prioritize getting your own work done, meetings will always come first and you will be scrambling to catch up on your workload. I does not feel appropriate to say SharkNinja is fast paced. The reality is that while projects and timelines move rapidly, leadership and the CEO are constantly changing their minds - altering projects, deadlines, and roadmaps with no real strategy other than being reactive, greedy, and money hungry. Leadership creates constant distress and disarray from their failures and lack of transparency. There is the overwhelming shared notion from employees that they are not valued - no matter how hard they work. SharkNinja will take and take - jeopardizing your mental health and wellbeing. HR is incredibly unsupportive - they will pretend to care about the good of employees, but really only care about the business (which is not surprising). In-office culture is very cold and unwelcoming. While there are many hardworking dedicated talented people working on SharkNinja's line of products, the fact is that the appliances are ripped-off cheaper versions of what other successful brands created. SharkNinja celebrates stealing ideas and crushing the competition because they have the marketing dollars to do so, and promote poorly made products on social media for a quick buck. On top of this, SharkNinja is an INCREDIBLY wasteful company - if you care about the environment I would recommend spending your hard-earned money elsewhere.

Oh boy, where to begin? SharkNinja is a company that revolves around poor communication with constantly moving goal posts and tight deadlines, though it tries to justify the chaos by framing it as a positive aspect of company culture using company corporate-speak terms like "progress over perfection" to gloss over the issues instead of fixing them. There is no frying pan period here - you're going right into the fire soaked in gasoline. The review process is a joke - you can hit every milestone and achievement (with the high internal review scores and poor sleep schedule to back it up), but the only thing that goes up is your workload, not your pay rate or position. This was happening regardless of the company having record profit years. There were a lot of empty promises surrounding raises and promotions across entire teams during my tenure at SN - you'll be chasing a lot of carrots during your time here, and you'll know that's all you're doing every time you log in. A soul-sucking endeavor, to say the least. Despite claims to the contrary, there appears to be very little room for growth. A lot of folks will stay in one position until management decides to lump their role over to someone else who is already doing the jobs of three people. If you're "lucky" enough to make it to middle management, you end up being the person doing the jobs of three people. Fun! You will be bothered by professional asks at all hours of the day, even when you're on vacation/PTO. Establishing boundaries on this front will be met with negativity instead of understanding. Don't believe the company's claims of growth - it appears they're doing layoffs almost weekly these days, which has further contributed to a stressful environment where everyone is overworked and scared. Entire teams have been gutted, and management will cut positions without a second thought as to their wider impact/implications to company initiatives, leaving remaining employees stranded and without valuable resources or knowledge. Unfortunately, if you're asked to document any of your processes, it means you're next on the chopping block. This has resulted in a ton of gatekeeping of information in the name of self-preservation, which exacerbates the issues. To put it simply, being overworked, overtired, and underpaid is the general vibe here, and you'll always feel like just another cog in a wheel that could be removed or replaced at any moment.
