Pros

Fun culture, great work environment, you get addicted to Pops, great perks at the office (Gym, Bowling Alley, slides next to the stairs and so forth), discount on Merchandise.

Cons

Management needs work in the Technology space (not I.T.). Favoritism is rampant. Managers can be a bit bitter when you know your job better than they do. Manager used to work for a consulting company, then brings that company into place and slowly drains the work from other employees leading to the release of employees that are not "in favor" of management. Benefits are good, but they are very expensive. The company started (this year, 2017) to help with the cost of premiums, but are still way above what other companies offer.

Pros

The team you get to work with and grow with is the best part of the job. If you’re into the product, the employee discount is solid I suppose.

Cons

Near zero chance for career growth with this company, within the retail store itself or moving up to corporate. The company has been subject to frequent layoffs and “restructuring”. The retail store has had three different general managers (so far). There are associates that have been part time for years, yet working full time hours, receiving no benefits. The retail store doesn’t utilize its workers properly. Good, solid workers have jumped ship completely due to burnout, being stepped on, management refusing to correct toxic workplace behavior, and selective coaching. You’re promised the opportunity to grow, but denied the development to make that a reality.
