Pros

-Salary -Stock options -High standards to support customer experience I managed a great team of both new managers and experienced managers. People really have a desire to do well and learn and improve.

Cons

-Management by public humiliation -Poor leadership -Poor management development -Managers treated like commodities -No sense of teamwork or collaboration. Everyone is out for their own agenda. -Very poor work/life balance. Senior management thinks they own you and that you have to be available 24/7 -Very high turnover of managers which also disrupts the hourly workforce and their trust of management

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
