Pros

I really like the people I work with. People are willing to help you anyway they can. The company has a tremendous growth opportunity ahead of it. There are so many greenfield opportunities for sales. Management is in the process of getting rid of none performers and people with poor attitudes. So you will see some unhappy post. If you want to work hard, you can make money. If you want to grow your career you can but you have to own it. I talked with manager and I have a plan and timelines.

Cons

Building needs to be updated. Need to get 401K match

Pros

Some genuinely talented sales and support employees doing their best despite chaos

Cons

This division operates like a case study in how not to manage people. Behind the polished brand and corporate slogans lies a culture of confusion, coercion, and performative leadership. Data without integrity. Leadership frequently weaponizes flawed reporting systems to justify predetermined outcomes. Metrics are manipulated, dashboards misconfigured, and when inconsistencies are raised, the response isn’t correction — it’s punishment. Retaliatory management patterns. Constructive feedback and transparency are treated as insubordination. The moment you question pay accuracy, policy contradictions, or ethical concerns, you’re quietly moved from “valued contributor” to “problem employee.” A culture of manufactured pressure. Arbitrary “activity minimums,” surveillance-style meetings and micromanagement, and public compliance sessions replace real coaching. Initiative is discouraged; conformity is rewarded. Disorganization at scale. Inter-departmental breakdowns are constant; sales, merchants, operations, and finance contradict one another daily, yet accountability never travels upward. Employees absorb the fallout of leadership’s own missteps. Erosion of trust. Policies change without notice, promises are walked back, and internal miscommunications are spun as employee failures. It’s an environment where you document everything not for collaboration, but for self-protection.
