Pros

Very modern tech stack which is nice for such a large company. I am on the .com team so I enjoy working in the ecommerce business. Would highly recommend.

Cons

There is some lack of consistency among different teams and poor communication across organizations. There is an effort to stabilize this but it is on going.

Pros

Lots of great people to work with. Easy to move up if you want to get promoted

Cons

When you move to manager or above you're expected to work whenever necessary. Most people in the position work minimum 50 hours week with about 15% increase in pay moving to a manager position

Pros

Diverse environment working in multiple verticals with store associates, vendors, and installation partners.

Cons

Political hidden agendas and hypocritical policies. Your asked to "do the right thing", support customer service and protect the brand, but often penalized for doing just that. Reporting and evaluations are skewed to favor those in good graces. You have to be very careful to navigate land mines of favoritism, those afraid to be exposed for their ignorance, and those that turn the other way rather than having the managerial courage to truely "do the right thing" and speak up for those unwilling to bend to these pressures.
