Pros

This company gives entry level professionals a chance to grow and expand their knowledge and skills.

Cons

They are a fast growing company that is still laying the foundation to be a great company. With that being said employees have to do more than just what is listed under their job responsibilities.

Thank you for mentioning the tremendous entry-level opportunities Surya offers. With our fast growth, we've recently had Employees transferring jobs internally, and others being promoted into new roles.

Pros

The company is young and is growing. Yes on your first day you might not be introduced, walked around, or even have your computer properly installed. On the flip side on day one you are given responsibilities you may have never received in your 8-5 cubicle job right after graduating from college. I left a corporate job to come to Surya and don't ever regret my decision. Where else can you work where you are allowed to be creative, and forward thinking along with working with the best retailers in the industry? To the people who have complained about the long market hours... this is something you will find in every wholesale company. During these long hours spent at market it is not all work there are also enjoyable moments. Remember when the whole team went to cirque du soleil, played laser tag in the showroom, or was taken to dinner multiple times? Like I said Surya is a great company but maybe not a great fit for everyone. If you don't have a passion for the industry maybe Surya isn't right for you.

Cons

Salary/ incentives are not competitive with the rest of the industry, commute, & cramped office (this is due to the growth of the company). Even with this being said I would still recommend Surya .

We appreciate your comments and completely agree - Surya is not a place for everyone, but for the right person, it is a wonderful opportunity to have fun, use your talents, work hard, spend long hours with other creative people, and make a difference. Surya recently hired a Director of Human Resources, who is putting together a team of professionals to help ensure employees have the information and the tools needed from their very first day.
