Pros

Need a job for a month or two while you play on your phone and have a easy check come in. Go for it they don't care and they gonna fire you after you're 90 days like they did everyone else.

Cons

Toxic work environment more drama than there is work being done. Managers are extremely incompetent and have no respect for there employees.

Do not board this sinking ship

Pros

Benefits are hands down, top notch in the state of Idaho Discount is bomb, if you buy supplements. "Flex time off" is bomb, if you know how to use it. Company culture is fun/modern, its a very millennial place to be. HR is always trying to get us involved with company events or activities.

Cons

Biggest con is I don't think company will be around for much longer. Anybody who is thinking about working here should know that as a possibility. People have been slowly leaving the company for the past couple e of years about 2-3 people per week almost with none of them being replaced. We just laid off probably about 30 people a few weeks ago on top of that. Now it seems people are leaving or are going to leave even fasternow that they did that. I was lucky enough to not be one of them and I was already interviewing at other places to see if I had other options here in the valley. I just accepted one a few days ago and gave my manager my two weeks during the past week. Im not about to wait around until they lay off more people out of the blue. Other cons: Discount is bomb, if you buy a lot of supplements. (I never buy supplements) "Flex time off" is bomb, if you know how to use it. (I never understood how to use it) Company culture could be considered fun or modern, its a very millennial place to be. (I'm not a millennial. I don't like millennials) HR is always trying to get us involved with company events or activities. (I hate all the events they try to make us do)

Sinking Ship With No Direction

Pros

Benefits are really good. Employee discount is nice if you order from the website a lot.

Cons

All the 5 Star reviews are either fake or blowing smoke. The lack of communication in this company is REAL, you learn more from watching youtube people talk about your company than you do from corporate. The company used to be open with communication and celebrate new ideas and products, now unless you are in on the meeting you have no idea what's going on until it happens. The CEO either has no idea what's going on or simply doesn't care. Tons of money is being dumped into automation for the shipping warehouses but no development work to make them work to max efficiency. It's like spending $10,000 on a new tv that only has 1 working channel. The company can't seem to figure out how marketing works and instead of pushing their own product which has the highest profit margins instead pushes competitor products which either makes very small profit or nothing at all. Instead of jumping on the hot trends of what customers want they often wait too long to act and sit on mountains of product that will never sell. All of this equals why the company is consistantly laying off employees and shutting down warehouses every year. They can't sustain orders or customers. Year over year they lose more and more customers and haven't shown growth since 2015. If you are looking for a temporary job then Bodybuilding is the place to be, but if you are looking for a career then make a hard pass as this company will struggle to be around in the next couple of years.
