Pros
- Variety of brands you get to work with - The teams on the ground across all departments - Having it on your CV (the outside world are yet to know how un impressive it actually is)
Cons
All unexperienced to be in the roles they are in, have been promoted internally despite not having previous management experience. In my time there I lost count of the passive aggressive slacks at 7am/9pm, asking me questions on subjects and matters which only hours before I had updated them on. Ask the questions, but don't actually listen. Then they get asked and don't have the answer so then you get asked again and again. Why have weekly meetings and updates if they don't listen or feedback? Lots of smoke and mirrors around the business. Externally they claim to be the biggest platform in the world for their target audience, yet internally use the 'we're still young and a start up' to hide and provide excuses for simply poor running of the place. HR, dont make me laugh. Senior people in the business have had multiple complaints and disputes made against them yet still sit pretty in their ivory tower. The review below with 4 stars - take the time to read it. Does it seem a little defensive, a little staged, deflecting. 'Fast pace, sometimes people can keep up' LOL classic HYPEBEAST tone and attitude. If you were to look at the previous employees that have come and gone, they've all seemed to do just fine in other places, often bigger and more successful than HYPEBEAST, yet they cant keep up. Or is it about the support and management? I have used it on my CV to open doors, meet cool people but equally I'm now embarrassed and annoyed with myself that I subjected myself to working in such a toxic environment for so long. HBX, their own retailer. 15% off for staff - laughable!!!! I get more discount at my local coffee shop for using it twice a week.
