Pros

Pay was decent for what it’s worth and although the hours are odd you won’t be working as much (although not by a lot) every week.

Cons

Managers are micromanaging connoisseurs and have no empathy for their staff. Forget requesting time off. You won’t get any benefits for the first 3 months of employment meaning no medical, dental, PTO, everything. This sucks because in the three months that you work there you’ll be out of work due to the fact that there is an observed Jewish holiday going on every other month or so.

Pros

- Great work/life balance: nobody works past 6pm, summer Fridays year round and a good chunk of Jewish holidays (but if you are hourly you are not paid for them unless you use your PTO, not cool) - Great job security, they avoid firing unless you are really bad at your job. - Depending on your team - nice and friendly colleagues, often very good knowledge base. My manager is supportive and within my team I feel trusted and valued. - Store discounts.

Cons

- No career growth unless you actively fight for it, no mentorship or desire to learn. - Often a feeling of distrust from higher management: all employees must clock in and out every day, even if you are salaried, an illogical, distrusting and antiquated habit. - Cracking down on WFH even though pandemic WFH exceeded expectations and the company did extremely well. Lost a huge number of valuable and incredibly talented employees to this and haven't fully recovered but still insisting. - Salaries are below market average - The office computers are hampered by strict and prohibitive filtering software, no wifi to laptops, extreme security both in office and working remotely, so much so that your productivity is affected. - Women are scrutinized for dress code, feeling watched and judged all the time. - Office facilities are old and depressing. - Diversity depending on the team and floor but generally very white and Jewish.
