Pros

The discount was pretty good

Cons

Its mention by some many comments before that why waste time typing it all out. Just highlight senior management not lifting a finger to help their employees with the subordinates getting others fired for their mistakes. Or doing anything but running everyone ragged till their burnt out an complain they are a crappy employee. All you have to do is ready comments about the company ANYWHERE, or just Google the name with 'lawsuits'and enough said... though if the higher ups do get the crappy together could still save the company before they run it into the ground.

Pros

Great team, best manager/HR team, Great Benefits, Great work/balance.

Cons

I haven't experienced any cons yet, but it would be nice to get to know other people from other teams. AP and Customer service are the only teams that choose to work in office, So some company mixers would be helpful in my opinion to put a face on who I'm emailing regarding work.

Pros

● Employee discount on dog food. ● The old mission before company sold out and private equity ruined it.

Cons

● Poor leadership: tone-deaf management collects their beautifully-high salary while retail associates get the brunt of customer complaints for low pay. A classic 'too many chiefs and not enough indians' company. ● Heads in the delusion cloud: It's so obvious you don't listen to your 'boots on the ground'. Your retail staff report customer sentiment in real-time yet you don't listen to their or the staff's feedback. You work from home tooting your own horn on how awesome JFFD is from the comfort of your virtual Teams meetings. Read all your customer reviews and staff exit interviews on why customers stop buying and staff don't stay. Customers know the quality of the food is falling; they're not dumb. Retail employees know they're being under-compensated; they're not dumb either. Every time an NC leaves, you lose that deep knowledge of customer service and have to retrain a new hire who isn't as good. Changing uniform designs and shifting staff around stores...you really think that's helping? How about achieving operational excellence with your retail staff? ● No career growth: rather than promote within, you keep seeking outsiders from other "prestigious" companies who have no idea how this company runs. They have their own theory of what things should be than what things actually are. Why do you think you're not making any progress? When retail staff don't see a clear road in growing their careers, they're out for better pay and treatment elsewhere. You have competent internal staff applying to roles they're very well-qualified for yet you give those jobs to your friends, family, and the IN crowd. Very nepotistic and not meritocratic.
