Pros

The colleagues you meet and connect with while trying to survive the trauma.

Cons

I am not a disgruntled employee who was fired; I chose to leave after a little over a year. This was (and still is) the most horrifically toxic workplace that likely exists in 2024. I was lucky enough to have an opportunity present itself sooner so I could get out of there. Not as many people are as lucky. This is not an exaggeration; this is a warning to anyone who chooses to read these reviews and use their best judgment: do NOT sell your soul to work for this company. It is NOT worth it. This company is on a downward spiral and is not going to improve while these executives and CEO are still in positions of power. I have experienced first hand the extremely abusive words of the CEO and the bullying of the executives he chose to hire and consistently promote. This man will go on a rampage and uproot the entire company in a matter of minutes because he has no control of his anger or impulses. The constant stress and inability to ever disconnect from work should be enough. After giving everything you have to be a good employee and hard worker, you will be told that you are worthless. You will be constantly on edge that your time to be impulsively fired on the spot is next. This company does not uphold their core values; businesses create core values for a reason but this business has completely abandoned their values for the sake of greed. This company is privately owned for a reason - money is funneling to the man in the main seat of power. Do not give this man the chance to abuse his power by working for him. Do your research. Ask questions. Look out for yourself.

Pros

Literally nothing, can’t think of one positive thing

Cons

I’ve been with the company for years and watching its continuous downfall has become almost comical. Two years ago we took major pay cuts (like 15%) because of the economy but this year they sent us to the Virgin Islands on this over the top meeting that must have cost a fortune. I’d rather have the money in my bank versus a trip I was forced to go on with senior leadership that are absolute horrific people in general and evil businesses people. It all felt like a big propaganda event with tons of videoing and picture taking so they could come home and post all over linked in and social media about how WONDERFUL it is to work there. Don’t even get me started on the new Little House on the Prairie denim dresses we have to wear because they hire managers that aren’t even strong enough to coach to a dress code. How can you run a store if you can’t even tell someone what they’re wearing inappropriate? Instead now we look like a bunch of little followers of the cult everyone already says it is. As long as we say we “stand out for good” at every opportunity it must mean it’s true right? To know who else brainwashed people into thinking bad things are good for them? CULT LEADERS.
