Pros

Decent access to discounts across products

Cons

This is truly one of the worst places you could ever work. Management is horrible—they consistently speak to employees in condescending tones and micromanage as if their lives depend on it. Many seem to get a thrill out of controlling young workers, which comes across as super weird and borderline sadistic. As someone with years of experience in the workforce, it’s clear that their practices and treatment of staff are completely unethical. You’re spoken to like you’re disposable, not trusted to do your job, and constantly criticized over minor tasks. The environment is incredibly toxic, leaving you feeling unappreciated and emotionally drained. The workplace itself is unwelcoming, with rampant favoritism undermining any sense of fairness. They claim to prioritize career progression, but that’s far from reality. The same goes for their talk about diversity and inclusion—their actions couldn’t be further from the truth.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to read this – no one should feel disrespected or unvalued at work. While this isn’t the culture we strive to build at On, we recognize that intent and impact can differ and we take your words seriously. We know that leadership is fundamental to any positive team environment. That’s why we continuously invest in leadership training, focused on building trust and adaptive communication. There’s still work to be done and we’ll continue prioritizing this. We’re also aware that culture is felt in the day-to-day – in how feedback is given, how people are treated, and whether there’s a real sense of belonging. Thank you.

Pros

Room for growth, especially if you really go looking for opportunities. Most of the opportunities are within retail. Don’t expect to be launched into a corporate role from a retail role.

Cons

- Pay is not good. Similar retailers pay several dollars more per hour and offer better benefits. They say that the rate is competitive but having worked for several other retailers, it’s not. - Operations are a nightmare. The company has scaled too fast and has left many loose ends that are still not tied up. Good luck finding answers to any problem that comes up. Be warned that paychecks and benefits WILL get screwed up. There are so many inconsistencies that make for more work and needless interpersonal friction. - Too much information is available for the entire company to view. There are not appropriate channels built in to limit access to information based on title and responsibilities. - Company culture is fine, but not for everyone. I did not feel welcome. I would not recommend working here unless you do super well with ambiguity. This company is still running like a startup.
