Pros

the members and suppliers are great. Worked with some really great people. 401k matching is good.

Cons

The leadership team is very short sighted with little to no plan for the future. When asked for a plan for departments, individuals or direction of the company as a whole they can’t (or won’t) provide answers, but expect blind trust from employees. They have a lot of big ideas but do not allow the time or resources for them to fully form and be successful leaving a lot of potential incomplete and abandoned. The company will hire people without a guarantee that the position will still exist or be needed 6 months down the line. They expect instant results. Most companies can provide a 5 to 10 year plan, this place struggles to form and stick to a 5 to 10 week plan. They operate on a fine line of false promises and flat out lies, telling employees whatever is needed to get what they want and it is too late before employees realize they fell for a cheap sales pitch. Claiming to have a solid work/life balance they expect employees to be able to drop everything for work at a moments notice, but provide no flexibility or trust if employees need it. A very one sides arrangement. Under the pretense of a “family organization” they will use you for everything you are worth and case you aside the second you don’t benefit their vision of the moment.

Pros

The membership and suppliers are amazing! This is where “family” plays into this company. The employees at the Fort Worth office are one of a kind and some of the best people you’ll ever meet. They’re loyal, selfless, and go-getters. They work nights and weekends just to stay afloat, and that in itself is irreplaceable.

Cons

The executive team isn’t aligned so you’re constantly chasing your tail to get the job done. They don’t value their employees or their hard work. They reward employees with a monthly luncheon, but other than that, they are worried about their own successes (which aren’t really theirs; it’s the employees working tirelessly to make them look good). Going above and beyond is expected here, and the 3% raises don’t justify the work you put in. When you work for a company for over 6 years and don’t get told “thanks for your hard work” or even a “good luck on your future endeavors”, you know you made the right choice to leave.
