      Pros

      The culture is so positive and up-lifting. They really make a point of cultivating a team environment.

      Cons

      The only con was that I was fully remote and worked ina different state and did not get to experience the office environment… but that is not a reflection on the company, just my personal circumstance

        Pros

        Good culture overall Flexible schedules (when you're not stuck in the many low value of meetings) Decent freedom to do your job (though there are exceptions)

        Cons

        There was a company wide meeting talking about career pathing for employees, but it was action-less words. 401k matching was nixed. I've taken on much more work than my title or pay would presume. Despite all positive reviews, I've had no career growth (even just pay). Many employees left for better opportunity because the company won't even give inflation adjusted merit increases. Executive leadership dangled the carrot with talk about merit salary increases being postponed until Sept., only to find out this month (15 months since last measly merit increase) there will be none this year.

                  Pros

                  Nautilus has survived multiple downturns in its 35+ year history in the fitness industry. The reason is that the core values persist: Nautilus makes innovative products that help people. I'm not a manager, I just someone who believes in the mission of this company because what we do is super cool.

                  Cons

                  There are companies fighting for their lives to get to where Nautilus is today. Let's celebrate where we are, not lament where we've been.

                    Cons

                    I wish I had taken the bad reviews I read on Glassdoor more seriously before accepting a position here. CEO does not have the experience to take this company through a digital transformation. Toxic CFO - you can see this by all of the other reviews mentioning her as well. Very unclear strategy communication from the executives. We were always busy but how what we were working on related to business strategies was unclear. As others have mentioned, the executive team loves taking credit for the boost in business from the pandemic. But it's clear that the opportunity has been wasted due to poor decision making. Extremely incompetent middle management. Many of whom have only worked for this company for the entirety of their careers, and it shows. Leadership and change management training needed, but I don't think it would be enough to change the toxic culture. No process in place for coverage when an employee goes on PTO. Essentially it is expected that someone is 'on call' when on PTO.

                        Company does try to engage its employees on doing various activities. You do feel welcome there.

                        Cons

                        Sadly, Nautilus tends to pay the bottom 10% in the industry when it comes to Supply Chain. No available advancement track either.

                      I have a 5 year gap in my work history due to an illness. How do I explain this? I can't lie, SSD is on my background check as a previous employer. I am on it and looking to re-enter the job market and get off of it, but I understand it is a reason for employers to pause in hiring me.

                      Senior Associate

                      How do you interview for a position when you are under-qualified based on seniority but not based on skills? I currently serve as a senior associate for a reputable consulting firm, and I have an interview for an associate director position. However, I am just shy of the minimum YOE requirement included on the job application and relatively young (though I meet all of the other requirements). Any advice on convincing the hiring manager I am ready for a mid-level role?

                      EY

                      Had 4 behavioral interviews for a position last week. Last Friday (which was the last of the four interviews), the interviewer spent most of the interview selling me on the job and didn't ask me any questions. She ended the interview by saying she thinks I am confident and would be a great fit for the role. I took this as a good sign but giving it's 2023 you never truly know. Has anyone ever had an interviewer do something similar and not gotten the job?
