Horrible Place to Work

Pros

Can't think of a single reason to work there

Cons

Culture of intimidation and bullying. Select people run the show and are treated well. The rest are bullied and treated like cattle. No business strategy. Management are just glorified hustlers. I felt uncomfortable and threatened every day I was there. Best thing I did was resign.

Zak Designs Response
8y
First off, we want to let you know we at Zak Designs appreciate feedback. Honest and constructive feedback from current and prior employees is important to the continued success of our business. However, it is important to explain for anyone who may read this review that Zak Australia Pty. LTD is not a subsidiary or entity of Zak Designs, Inc., which is based in Airway Heights, Washington, United States. The statements and information shared in this review are related to an organization that sells Zak Designs’ products. Zak Designs does not control or oversee the operations or employment practices of Zak Australia. We reached out to Zak Australia Pty. LTD and learned that this reviewer would have been an employee of Hot Topic not Zak Australia Pty. LTD although the individual would have performed services for Zak Australia. We brought this error to Glassdoor’s attention but its representatives elected to not correct the post to the appropriate employer.

Pros

Some talented / dedicated people. Potentially interesting product and business.

Cons

Toxic corporate culture long - unrewarding days and mediocre pay. Owners ineffectively manage through fear and blame while displaying no leadership capability.They are consistantly unethical be it supplier treatment, employee lay off strategies or how they portray themselves to the community. The company has been the proverbial revolving door. The businesss has survived in spite of management due to the Disney liscense.
