Pros

- Riding for free is the best perk - Good health benefits for full time employees - Working for a well known, well loved brand has its perks

Cons

- If you aren't friends with certain members of the leadership team, you will not be able to grow - Very gossipy environment - people are extremely fake and seem happy but no one really is. - There's a toxic feeling in the air. Many people are working in fear of getting fired, mostly because management has set a precedent that you could get let go at any time for even the stupidest reason. - I've been here for less than a year and many of the most talented people have either been fired (because one person of power out of hundreds of employees didn't like that person) or have quit due to the culture of this company. - The brand is expanding too rapidly that new studios are not getting the attention and love that they need in order to thrive, especially in new regions
