Pros

The company paid salaries which were higher than the market value in order to retain their staff. Staff to work ratio was low, therefore most employees were forced to learn skills outside of their job description, thus giving them a broader spectrum of experience in the work force.

Cons

Absolutely no quality of life. The workload is overwhelming and it's expected that employees work until all hours of the night, sometimes leaving well past midnight with no additional compensation as well as working during vacations and weekends from home. You are expected to be on call virtually 24/7.

Pros

Literally none, you will be overworked and expected to stay until the late hours of the night with the reward of pizza.

Cons

Racist employees, HR does nothing. They tried to remove our red pens due to a superstition??? Over worked, management is clueless and gives special treatment to their friends while neglecting employees that work hard. Designers are all over the place and don't have clear direction. You have 2.5 minutes to fit garments and you have to take your own notes. I literally started having panic attacks working here. During covid they expected everyone to be in office 5 days a week. Regardless of train delays and no one was wearing a mask. So that shows you how much they care about employees.

Pros

Some people I worked with were great.

Cons

It’s not a performance driven company. Instead, it’s political and there is a lot of favoritism. It’s disorganized. Employees are overwhelmed and over worked. Long work hours.
