Pros
They hire great hardworking people. The products are good quality, and they do care about sustainability.
Cons
Although Saalt hires talented people, the leaders ultimately don’t trust them to do their jobs without being involved in every single thing. Like everything. Only certain departments/people have the autonomy to really do their jobs well. Pay is below average and not market rate (unless you’re recruited then suddenly the money is there), but expectations are through the roof. Overworking is the norm—it’s expected for you to be available for last minute requests, even during holidays. The minute you set boundaries, your position and dedication is questioned. The negative reviews are real and lived experiences not to be taken lightly. They are all people who have worked really hard for the company, just to be let down. There is a huge lack of accountability from the owners for the amount of micromanagement there is—which adds a level of hypocrisy with how much they preach that everyone needs to take full ownership of their roles. When the going gets tough, they look for someone to scapegoat and blame for their decisions rather than looking at how their own actions got them there.
