Pros

The potential for meaningful community exists in theory.

Cons

•Policies applied based on status, not standards •Leadership more reactive to optics than ethics •Boundaries? Blurred. Support? Missing. •Inclusivity is a marketing tool, not a lived value •Retaliation disguised as “policy enforcement” •Culture of silence when accountability is inconvenient

Pros

Fun business to be a part of. Lots of great co-workers, everyone is friendly. A little chaotic at times but overall a good atmosphere with caring people.

Cons

Still a young business trying to work out early-stage kinks. It’s getting better. They had some turnover in management but it seems they’re getting the right people in place.

Pros

There are some genuinely good people at Edison House. If you are fortunate enough to work under the few strong managers who remain, they may shield you from the worst of it for a while.

Cons

Edison House is not a hospitality company, it is a vanity project run by two brothers with money but no industry experience or respect for the people who make the business run. Their behavior sets the tone for everything else. For example: - Dismissive of women, condescending to staff. - Micromanaging, frequently intoxicated, and prone to public, aggressive outbursts. - Money flows to pet projects, not to people. Do not expect a raise. - Basic tools and training necessary to do your job will be ignored, leaving staff to take the blame for inevitable failures. The concept of Edison House has so much potential, but I would recommend not wasting your time. Talented people leave for a reason.
