Pros

It's a job. Pay is fair. You can travel to NY occasionally.

Cons

This company is damaged from the top. The current CEO is not respected, she is divisive NOT a leader. Her lack of skill, talent, experience has produced several of the lowest performing seasons in Direct's history. The company has lost relevance due to WEAK leadership that values 'yes' men vs differing POV's. Most employees are extremely unhappy and want to leave.

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
