Pluspunten

- The employees they do have are treated well - Decent career opportunities - All of my peers were amazing people

Minpunten

- Disorganized management (constantly moving targets, contradicting business updates month-by-month, and poor communication from leadership) - "Golden Rule": It sounds stupid, but it was one of my favorite parts of the company. Treat others how you want to be treated. A core value from the CEO and Founder. Along the way, the company made repeated choices that went against this, to the point where it feels insulting they have that included in their values. This includes mass layoffs in favor of cheap labor, despite "one last final push" till we were a public company. Many of these employees had been with the company since its beginning. The entire 2023 year left a massive bitter taste in my mouth and many others. Beware of this company's culture before you enter. - Their shirts are way overpriced

Pluspunten

Good benefits and diversity initiative at the time.

Minpunten

The company lied about what the job was. A "community building local representative" for their brick and mortar stores ended up just being a cold calling job and taking incoming calls for other stores. No room to move up. The management was the worst I ever worked for. Weird rules where they signed the lease, including someone having to stay in the store in inclement dangerous weather. Most of the "old school" employees I came into contact with drank the Kool Aid in a weird way that left no room for criticism. I left in 2022 and have been watching the rating here fall for all the years since. Could have been a great company but I wouldn't ever give them my energy now, as an employee or customer.
