Pros

Free food and preferential treatment if you are the same faith as the employer. a $500 healthcare plan. Near the F line in Brooklyn. Some friendly coworkers. A good challenging environment where you could be expected to respond to e-mails late at night.

Cons

There are only 3 negative things to point out working here. The communication could be improved as IT will seldom look at tickets and just close them at will and is not effectively rolled out as many employees do not use it. Management only speaks in superlatives and refuses to engage in discussion in clarifying and continuing projects. The second issue would be the absolute lack of structure, for example, many large purchasing decisions are up to the whim of management and not well thought out and dealing with basic problems like product that has not moved in months or what to do in the event of a Buyer leaving. This leaves Buyers with large messes they had nothing to do with that WILL be used against them on performance reviews. The last thing I would like to point out is the discrimination against people not of the faith, race, or socioeconomic group. The condescending attitude towards some people as well as derogatory language is confusing and unnecessary. Even those who have been there for years and work closely with management have their opinions discounted and at the same time chastised for not giving them.

We aim to treat all employees equally, and are sorry to hear that you felt otherwise. We have signed up for a Diversity and Inclusion training so that we can ensure that ALL employees feel comfortable working at Focus Camera. Employees are never expected to work after-hours and we do not require employees to have access to their emails once they leave the office. We have hired new staff to join our IT team and have seen tremendous improvement in project communication and completion. We're sorry that you're not here to see it, as we're sure you'd be proud!

“Excellent hands-on opportunity to lead e-commerce growth initiatives. I was given full ownership of launching Focus Camera’s TikTok Shop and SHEIN channels from scratch, including creator partnerships, ad campaigns, and platform integrations. Management trusts you with real responsibility and is supportive when navigating challenges. Great place to build skills across marketplace operations, affiliate marketing, and analytics. Fast-paced and rewarding for someone who wants to make a measurable impact.”
