Pros

Promoted during my 4 years, and the company has a lot of incentives to offer (competitive PTO; Summer Fridays; casual dress code; employee recognition program; sample sales; free treats; additional training opps; team gatherings; etc) . Great to see that HR was involved in employee satisfaction and you are held to uphold company values. Learned a great deal from mgmt & peers that would be used further in career. It felt great to know the company's vision and to see people work towards that vision everyday. Overall, it is a fun place to work, and you have the opportunity to really see how each departments operates and works together to get the job done.

Cons

Lack of growth opportunities leads to some employees staying in same position for years

Pros

Remote, work-life balance, easily post shifts and get vto if you want it

Cons

Hours fluctuate way too much, and repetitive, brainless type of calls. You're walked all over, and have to play stupid with customers because of their "assume good intent" policy, but WOW the amount of people who take advantage of this wild. You will see hundreds of dollars refunded on numerous back-to-back orders of the same person claiming they didn't get their package, or coupons and gift cards, nonstop, with customers always complaining. The complaints from customers still in store on their treatment from store managers and supervisors are shocking, I've had calls hearing those workers yellling at customers. The type of work and level of needing to play stupid is just not for me. I also didnt care for never getting a straight answer from managers, trainers, higher-ups. Everything is always beating around the bush. One time hours were cut back a lot, and they blamed the tariffs that the president imposed, which made no sense. Come to find out from a long-term employee that it was just the usual slow time. It's a weird work environment that you just can't take seriously. If you want remote work, take it for the experience on your resume, but move on.
