Pros

Resume builder because it was an very small team and you are taking on the work of multiple positions, laid back work environment, and my coworkers at my time of employment were all extremely hard working, easy to get along with.

Cons

Constant fear that you won't be getting your pay check, employees were laid off with no notice if they couldn't afford to pay them that week. The work environment is multiple employees working out of their apartment, which is constantly dirty. Employees are left out of the loop by management in regards to the warehouse, fulfillment, website, and financial matters. Requests for any updates/ team meetings were always shot down or just avoided by the CEO and interactions in general were harsh and impersonal. I often found out what was going on with the company through social media. I read the glassdoor reviews before taking on the job and wish that I had taken them more seriously.

Pros

New and exciting products from hard to find vendors. A growing team from diverse backgrounds. LGQT supports who encourage individuality. They give people a chance to break into the tech/eCommerce field (employees and vendors)

Cons

Growing pains. It is easy to have an idea, but so hard to put it together. And that's what they are doing right now.

Pros

The employees were great. I look forward to going to work every day, to work with such motivated, hard working, and fun, positive people. There are always good office vibes when the CEO is not in. Every one works very hard while being a great group of friends.

Cons

The CEO has no idea how to operate a business. She is very disrespectful of her current employees, demands extra weekend/holiday work from them without appropriate compensation. In addition to this, she is the most unprofessional employer I have ever worked with. There is no policy manual, or contract given to employees. She does not value her staff. All employees have 2 or 3 separate job titles to their name, yet are paid less than would even be acceptable for 1 of these positions. Her employees are willing to go above and beyond for her, yet she consistently abuses their loyalty. She demands that many of her employees work over the weekend from home, yet does not pay them more or give adequate bonuses. Note that their are no benefits offered to employees.
