Pros

I was a tell sales person, getting recognized for the region. they took away bonuses and lowered commissions. I never sold the same since and the environment got more toxic and negative each day I came into work. I DO NOT recommend working here. your hard work is ignored and the managers micromanage to a point where it feels like you're in prison. I didn't have to write this review, but its as real as it gets.

Cons

On top of what I stated before- you work EVERY WEEKEND AND MOST HOLIDAYS! they claim they have "work life balance" and are a """fun and exciting work environment.""" This is what they sell you! don't trust them. they owe me bonus money to this day. I cried multiple times at work. Their employee turnover rate is RIDICULOUS!!!! Ive never seen another company where I've met and seen so many people quit and I only worked there for a year.

Pros

Work life balance, hard work recognized, and some of the best management I've ever worked with. Bonuses if you work hard. Great workflow and everyone is always doing their best. Looking forward to a long career here. I thank God everyday for my job and coworkers.

Cons

Not much. Great place in general.

Pros

2020 and maybe 21,22 were good after it all went down hill (thanks to AH )

Cons

Everyone is related , friends , family etc. HR is all friends with eveyone there for you cannot be taken serious . So many talented associates leave because they are forced out due to personal preference. Turn over company wide they say is low. However the location I worked in 80 precent of people were 6 month or under ! Yikes !!! Management does not know how to keep and lead their team , instead they micro manage , make up new rules that they do not follow after a few weeks and they always seem stressed. Oh and bonus program is constantly restructured . They present it as new opportunities however it’s really for them to pay less. This company always pays very low percentage and you have to jump through hoops that are on fire to make a bonus. And I wasn’t some employee who worked 6 months and quit. I was someone making 90k yearly for several years. This is just a reality. Higher management needs traning asap. And insurance gets worse every year !
