Pros

If you are willing to work hard, there are more opportunities to grow and learn about all aspects of the business than at most companies. The atmosphere is laid back, and there are a lot of perks to take advantage of.

Cons

Salaries don't always balance with what the position would be making in other companies. I think this is mostly the affect of promoting internally. The environment can be frustrating because many employees don't have any experience in other corporate environments, and expect a perfect-world workplace that doesn't exist anywhere.

Pros

Superior environment, great/smart/genuinely kind people, and some true work/life balance. CSN is a great place to start a career. It's also a wonderful company for senior level professionals to teach what they know, learn the latest trends in the e-commerce world and really have a positive impact on a growing business. Also, many of the benefits are very attractive.

Cons

CSN is evolving and dynamic. That's exciting for many of us. But for a person who requires a great deal of structure and someone to tell him/her exactly what to do and when to do it, that individual might need to take a little time to adjust to CSN. Now that CSN has grown well beyond a technology focused "start-up," I'm excited to see how CSN will continue to change the e-retail landscape in the home goods arena and beyond through even more creative marketing and outreach.

Pros

CSN Stores is an excellent place to enter into the working world. The owners are extremely talented and take painstaking efforts to make CSN a great company to work for. There is plenty of advancement potential, even within 12 months for the most motivated employees. The pay matched with the benefits package is on par or better than competing organizations for nearly all levels.

Cons

Due to rapid growth, sometimes it is difficult for employees to adjust to change. This is a normal reaction to organizational and cultural change. I really do not see downsides to working at CSN if you have the right attitude and initiative. There is ample opportunity for advancement, much more so than other companies. It's unfortunate that some employees have not had experience working for other companies to realize this. I personally have worked for a large organization with plenty of structure; it's not fun. Career opportunities are few and far between, "management" is jaded and uninspired; the point being that every company will have a few dissenters along the way.
