Pros

The mission statement and high quality products are easy to get behind and the industry is quite exciting to be a part of. The core team are passionate, brilliant, hard working team players eager to learn and grow. Unlimited PTO, access to lots of organic and natural products, a team of loyal coworkers that will be friends for life.

Cons

CEO, Management, workload, pay. Unfortunately the Management lacks experience in effectively leading and growing teams. There is a culture of severe micro-management and lack of job clarity leading to ambiguity, distrust and poor morale. Decisions are driven by personal opinion regardless of data and strategic rationale. There is an unrealistic workload expectation and current employees are severely underpaid for the amount of work they are fulfilling and are burned out. Unless a change in high level management happens I would not recommend joining this company.
