Pros

A company that cares about employees, consumers and the planet. As an employee I feel respected and feel as though I can really make an impact on the company's results. The category we operate in, healthy snacks for kids, is vibrant, fun and challenging. We are a market leader, that has experienced tremendous growth but have lots of potential to continue down that path

Cons

We are lean and at time would love to have more resources (but then again, most places operate that way by necessity).

Pros

Very few pros beyond compensation and hybrid working.

Cons

Many, many cons. Do not work here if you cannot dedicate ALL of your waking hours, constantly. The organization is very lean and upper management is highly demanding but also completely ineffective at making decisions in a timely manner. People in the NY office are stretched beyond their reasonable human limits and the working environment is filled with smaller toxic groups that collude against people who use their PTO time "too often," have a life outside of working hours (you need to be available 24/7) or if you have to leave at a certain time for school or daycare pick up, etc. You'll catch on in a short time that this is not a place for thriving but only for surviving until your escape. There is a ton of contention between department leaders as well and the leadership/exec team has created an atmosphere of fear that your middle manager will never be able to manage the burden of ultimately creating relief from the overflow of demands. You will be unhappy by your decision to work here, and there is a lot of turnover (even with newer hires), and you can expect to fill in for those gaps for long periods of time.
