sales professional - Sales Representative B&H Photo Video Employee Review

the company benefits are good

long hours and some clients can be demanding

Excellent coworkers with a good sense of camaraderie. Long breaks due to mandated Jewish holidays. Small benefits for discounted store purchases and occasional free lunches. Layoffs are virtually unheard of.

Abysmal flexibility and work/life balance. Unremarkable compensation. Utterly incompetent leadership from the very top to middle management. Convoluted and unclear team structure. No clear path to career growth. Religious and gender discrimination and nepotism. Suspicious and childlike treatment of all employees. Inadequate time off policies (no sick days or personal days, only 3 weeks of PTO a year). Absolute disdain for any remote work. Many Hasidic employees display poor interpersonal skills and struggle to communicate politely in English. Conflicting and nonsensical messaging from leadership. A tendency to punish every employee for the misdeeds of individuals, rather than allowing managers to manage.
