Pros

- well structured procedures - pretty consistent between divisions - you can learn a lot that can spring board you into your next career

Cons

- archaic procedures, technology and management style - slow to promote - wants you to blindly follow and never question - management is the worst I have ever seen - if you’re not at your desk you’re not working (and they will walk around to check/babysit) - discriminatory practices toward working parents - upper management in LA is wayyyy too important to acknowledge the existence of anyone in accounting - except to yell at the “boss” who has zero backbone and will just push the crap downhill - don’t become a manager unless you want to spend 60% of your time signing AP checks - quarter end you’ll have to wait around long after you’re done with work to watch “boss” type numbers into his computer, ask irrelevant questions, and deem you worthy of going home - This list could go on, but hopefully you figured out that people and culture mean absolutely nothing here. Whoever you are, you can do better. Don’t sell yourself short by taking a job here.

Pros

No micromanagement Work flexibility Great culture

Cons

Layoffs are common due to the market, so job security is not stable. Few recognized holidays. No floating holidays off, must use only 3 PTOs. Room for growth depends on other's leaving.

Pros

No one is really watching you. Not being in the office to run errands or long lunches no problem.

Cons

Managers talk about each other and their staff. CRM is fake and we use it for the sake of the shareholders. Shoppers
