Pros

Continuous improvement and innovation is an authentic core value. I have never received as much internal training and thoughtful orientation at any other employer. Workplaces are very safe, clean and comfortable compared with other similar workplaces.

Cons

Being a retail company dependent on and committed to customer service means that employees sometimes have to work extra hours, on holidays, and sometimes experience changed schedules.

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.
