Absolutely none not even the money is worth the treatment you receive

Discrimination is rife among area managers and above you call them out and they make your life hell. Toxic bullying culture - ignore there values it’s all rubbish. No training provided to anyone. Rule by fear - they are all absolute sly managers all protecting each other.

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
