Pros

The people are the only reason employees stay. This company used to be able to hire top talent & smart people, which created a good learning environment. But eventually all the good, smart, talented employees leave to go off to bigger & better places that will pay them 3x's if not more the money. The furniture discount is okay, depending on which manufacturers your buying from (margins). Majority of the time employees don't even get a discount because the margins are so bad, therefore your better off going to retailmenot.com & getting a 10% off coupon for being a new customer, IM NOT KIDDING EMPLOYEES HAVE DONE THIS.

Cons

Everything. The pay is SO BELOW market value, its a joke. HR tries to rope new employees in with "equity" and lies about the bonus. First off, HR lies about the bonus because they 1- always tell new hires they can "get up to 10%", when in reality the high bonus is considered 5-6% AND the bonuses are PRORATED FROM YOUR START DATE. Noone ever tells new hires this, because they are afraid they'll turn down the position once they realize theyll make no money. Also 40% of your bonus gets taken away from taxes, so your left with barely anything. Theres also ZERO ROOM FOR GROWTH OR PROMOTIONs. Management legit says "someone has to leave for you to get promoted"

Pros

The company offers a great work/life balance. Break rooms are equipped with all perks such as games and free snacks and coffee. Great benefits packages offered as well

Cons

Job is in operations what makes the job very repetitive. Also the salary is very low compared to competitors. Little flexibility with changing work hours.
