Pros

I learned how senior management should not act. After going through this terrible experience I made great relationships with those who went through it with me.

Cons

Many employees compare employment at Overstock to an abusive relationship: senior management promises that they will treat the employees better, but it never happens. In one year there was 80% turnover in my department (marketing). A friend of mine spent 80 hours working over Thanksgiving weekend because upper management decided to change strategies the day before. I did not receive a bonus or raise because one of the directors spread lies about me. In the 5 years I was there, I had eight different VP's - seven of them were fired when I quit. The eighth one was fired 6 months after I left. Another friend of mine found that items were going missing from photo and commercial shoots. He went to his boss, who started an investigation. When the branding manager found out, she had the VP put an end to the investigation, and tried to get my friend fired. I could go on with many more experiences similar to this that happened to a friend or I.

Pros

Coworkers are my main reason for coming back daily, I'd hate to let them down.

Cons

Toxic ceo is more focused on being confrontational than productive. The consensus in his town hall meetings is to 'keep your head down, avoid direct eye contact, do not ask questions'. He's focusing on building the upper management team while regular layoffs of people who actually do the heavy lifting is reducing our actual output.
