Pros

Hard working people, some nice company perks, decent coverage of expenses and educational trips, cannot trust the information you are given as it changes frequently

Cons

I have been with the company for several years. Lots of really good people here, but the company runs very lean on bodies. While a chosen, hardworking few are rewarded, it's tough to break through. the chosen few are those willing to sacrifice all to advance. Employees are left with multiple directions, many of which are u-turns in terms of strategy. While it is an opportunity to carve your own path, it is difficult to do so without any spine of what the company vision is beyond their marketing pitch. They also change directions frequently with regard to quarterly objectives and said marketing strategies. You can spend 2 months focused on multiple brands, only to be course corrected with less than 30 days to alter the buying landscape in a given quarter. If you don't make there number, the questions won't fall on the company...they'll fall on you not, "getting the vision". Not a consistent company message to build on. It lends a disjointed feel to their methodology, rife with panic & reactive focus . The company messaging from the outside, albeit creative, is vague at best...without identifying where all of their products are coming from. Part of the annual bonus is based on whether they, "like you" or not. It's not based on any measurable, it's simply a hoodwink policy. they don't seem to like many of us as this percentage is rarely activated for anyone...and if it is...you're not to disclose it. They don't care about your family. The job comes first. Everything else is secondary.

Hiding the bad behind a pretty curtain

Pros

There are some really good people there that were wonderful to work with and deserve so much more than what they get.

Cons

This company solely exists to soothe the ego of its owner. He is the Donald Trump of the wine industry, only caring about his image and name being plastered all over Napa valley. This affects how the company operates, as it only cares to cater to him and not its employees in any which way. The owner just buys properties despite nothing about their system working and it's just patch work, mom and pop business mentality.

Lack of Employee Care

Pros

Pay is competitive. Employee discounts on products, wine, etc. are decent.

Cons

A complete lack of care for employees. It is currently shutting down one of its properties and only gave its crew of 17 employees a two-week notice of this closure, leaving an entire staff jobless just before the holidays, with no outreach for them to work at other properties or establish any other opportunities. The owner, Jean Charles Boisset, is without argument one of the most childish individuals I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He makes unrealistic demands, is extremely rude to even low-level staff, and is the likes of what many would title a "Karen", which is funny considering the basis of his company is a strive for customer service. I've witnessed rude remarks made to employees, including sexual statements, as well as the threat of firing individuals for not working through their legal breaks. When it is made aware that he might show up at a business location, the dynamic of the workplace changes and it can be seen how he intimidates management especially.
