          Pros

          Company does hire good talent and good people. I worked at corporate and loved my direct co-workers. Best part of the job.

          Cons

          1) No career development. People only got promoted if their manager was getting married or pregnant, and assistants had to cover for that period of time. While interviewing, they really made you feel like there was momentum, but there isn’t. 2) I was let go because I purchased discounted items with another persons credit card besides my own. It was an odd way to go, they waited a few years to call me out and when they did the HR meeting was super unprofessional. They definitely made me seem like just a number and they did not have my best interest at heart. They still make a profit from the discount, business is bad so it is a way for them to let go employees. 3) Not a flexible work life balance. They gave us Friday was WFH, but still had us come into the office. Also, don’t give a lot of time off during the holidays. 4) Overall, there are just better places to work. They pay less than the market, only give 3% to your 401k when most companies like Gap give 5%. And work life balance is bad. Just go somewhere else.

        Based on your experience, what preceded the job offer email: have you received that relatively fast, or you’ve been waiting in silence? For how long?

        Had an interview today and at the end recruiter asked if I was interviewing with another company I was honest and said yes I currently have an offer already with another company. Should I have said that? Worried it may hurt my chances with the interview process going forward.

        Many people are getting ghosted during the interview process these days so I started https://ghosts.fyi to track companies that regularly ghost. Let me know if you could see this being helpful during your job search!
