Pros

The company appears to be managing regardless of high staff turnover.

Cons

In 2022, Wine Racks America, Inc. was acquired by Salt Creek Capital, a private investment firm. The company has since failed to provide raises, citing poor financial performance. However, in 2024, Wine Racks America had sufficient funds to purchase a Canadian wine rack company. Despite this acquisition, product prices have increased every few months, yet these hikes have not translated into employee raises. All departments are operating under extreme pressure without incentives, facing threats instead. Employees are warned about potential replacement, and most are salaried, working after hours and on weekends to keep up with demands. Wine Racks America exemplifies corporate America. For those seeking that environment, this company will absorb and exhaust them.

Pros

Fun and engaging industry to work in. It's all about wine, which tends to be a 'low blood pressure' item in most people's lives. It makes the work and clientele a pleasure.

Cons

Sometimes we are so busy that getting shipments out on time is a struggle. This can get stressful around the holidays.

Pros

Lack of proper management means you will be left alone which is fine after the three or four weeks of hell you will go through trying to figure out how do your job. Most people quit within the first week.

Cons

Management hides in the office. If there is a problem, you have to go find them. The company was purchased by a private equity firm, and since then the business is being drain of all profits to fund other businesses. No training. No culture. No teamwork. No management. No raises. They will use you and then let you go when profits are down, keeping only the dregs who don't even bother to show up on a consistent basis or put a decent amount of effort into their work. This entire outfit is for losers. Stay away.
