Pros

You can work from home

Cons

To work here, you need to agree with the philosophy that the company is more important than your family. It is a toxic workplace with a massive turnover of people quitting in despair or getting fired for no reason. If you survive the probationary period, the average workday is about 12-14 hours, not including weekends. Every weekend is filled with phone calls, emails, or meetings. The CEO doesn't believe in personal time, so you must be willing to respond to his texts/phone calls on nights, weekends, vacations, and holidays. The company will tell you that others couldn't hack it, but the truth is the company doesn't care about its employees. There is a reason why top positions are open. Your life will come to a stop working here; go somewhere else.

Pros

Exposure to executive level responsibilities.

Cons

Heads are rolling there every month. The churn rate is the highest of any company I’ve ever seen. It may seem like a great opportunity on paper but it is far from what it seems. Avoid at all costs it’s a set back. I saw people hired and leave their current careers for what seems like an opportunity of a lifetime and then are fired 1 week into the job. Avoid for your own sake! Don’t believe them when they say, some people just can’t hack it. There is a reason these positions are constantly open and they can’t attract top tier talent.

Thanks for sharing your feedback. Sorry to hear your experience wasn't a positive one. I'm not sure when you last worked for the company but in the last two years we've made great strides in hiring and retaining top talent. In fact, of our new hire retention rate in 2020 was over 95%! As we grow, we continue to invest in our people through annual reviews, performance management, employee engagement, employee total rewards, promoting from within, and offering new career opportunities at all levels.

Pros

The staff at the subsidiary companies were kind and hardworking people

Cons

Incredibly toxic work environment and “leadership” who pride themselves on tearing people down. They also pull some really shady tactics with their benefits. If you’re thinking of leaving a reputable company to join this hot mess, think twice. It’s a company run by spineless egomaniacal people trying to turnaround failing businesses that very likely are not going to weather the changing retail landscape. It’s laughable that they try to compare themselves to Berkshire Hathaway and pretend that they’re a super elite company.

Thank you for your feedback. We're dedicated to our mission of saving retail. In just four years, we’ve acquired and turned around several brands to get to a $500M run rate. We’ve also saved over 1,000 jobs, several companies from liquidation, and have over one million happy customers and counting. We take pride in our culture of making an impact and driving results but realize building/re-building companies can be demanding. We welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns directly if you're open to it.
