Avantages

Pay is decent 40% employee discount (to encourage you to buy the overpriced merchandise so you can rave to customers how well it works)

Inconvénients

What happened to this company over the last two years? This used to be a decent place to work, and now it is a soul sucking and soul crushing miserable hell hole. Hours at store level are cut so ridiculously low that we don't have enough people to help the customers in the store, which leads to very frustrating customers and long lines at the registers. Getting yelled at by customers on the daily is not how I like to spend my working days, but management is not doing much to save the situation. How could they when they spend the majority of the time hiding in their offices and just make up new rules to make life on the sales floor even harder and more miserable. No more raises and no more 401K contribution, yet just last year all the higher ups and managers got to live it up for a week long retreat (all company paid for) in Texas. Thanks I hope my retirement fund tasted nice since you used it to pay for all the fancy food for your 500+ employees last year.

Avantages

Everyone from director level on down in my department was great. Very collaborative. Gave you autonomy to do and try new things.

Inconvénients

Where do I start…Sr. Leadership is TERRIBLE. I mean absolutely horrific. No direction and plans were changing at the drop of a dime after the BB&B “merger”. You could feel the shift in the culture, just NASTY attitudes and taking the employees for granted. The new CEO and the rest of Sr. level execs acted like everyone was just expendable workhorses. They touted reopening the headquarters cafe as some awesome benefit so they could bring people back to the office full time. If you’re going to be bullish and require everyone back, have some guts and just do it. But don’t act like a cafe is some life changing benefit to get everyone excited. Anyway, blind leading the blind. The merit increase or raises - non existent. No 401k match. Nothing positive because the company is so broke. The new store concept sounds a mess. Save yourself and don’t even apply, let alone accept an offer. Joel Bines is no longer the CEO. He was a great guy and I think he had great ideas. Marcus Lemonis is the new CEO and I would give him a thumbs down.
