Pros

Free makeup every month, your coworkers are a nice group of people, competitive salary, decent benefits, they buy bagels most Fridays

Cons

I would not recommend this company to anyone. While the pay is competitive, it is not worth the stress that you have to endure while employed at this establishment. Prepare to be used, abused, overworked, stressed, among other things. This is an office setting where everyone knows each other's business. Everyone is made aware of what's going on in everyone else's personal life. The amount of drama that goes on in the office is deplorable. You don't get the opportunity to learn. Management does not provide career advancement opportunities. They use you and exhaust you and dump you once they can no longer get anything from you, all the while not bothering to provide you with any guidance or teach you skills to advance in your career. The biggest complaint amongst everyone in the office is the lax management. Check out their social media, all their customers hate their customer service. This is mainly due to errors on the logistics side; meanwhile, upper management blames everyone but the actual people responsible, themselves. The CEO and COO are mindless idiots who have no idea what they're doing; they've had immense luck in getting to where they are now. Upper management expects you to have no life; you will be at their beck and call so DO NOT TAKE A SALARY POSITION HERE! You will sell your soul to the devil once you get that company phone. There is an incredibly high turnover rate; the majority of the employees who helped to start the company and help get it to where it is now were let go. Highly qualified employees leave upon learning the true nature of the place. All in all, this is a job where you will remain stagnant. Their hardworking and long-term employees are not compensated in the manner they should be. No one is awarded a raise or bonus based on merit. There are no performance reviews so don't expect to get (m)any raises. No one is appreciated and you are made to feel as though you are replaceable at any moment. They even make you train your replacement! This is not a place for those who are looking for a stable job which can lead to growth and career advancement. This is not a place for those looking to make a career of their job.
