Stingy holidays, poor medical benefits, and low morale

Pros

Overall, the employees are very nice and very good at their work. The project management and merchandising teams are especially notable.

Cons

Only 6 holidays per year where normally it is 10 to 12; the company contributes only $250 per month toward medical insurance; the current business agenda is venture capital driven: reorganize the company in order to sell it and make a profit; morale in the company is consequently very low.

YDesign Group Response

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are disappointed with your perception of the environment and culture here at YDG. Our teams are valued for the contribution they make to YDG’s growing success and our Great Today, Better Tomorrow environment. For their hard work and “play to win” attitude, employees are encouraged to take advantage of our generous Paid Time Off policy to step away and recharge as they see necessary. YDG utilizes a number of resources to ensure our compensation and benefits remain competitive within the marketplace. While not all roles can be filled internally, YDG strives to first give opportunities to current employees to advance their careers. This is a win for the employee and the company. In the last quarter alone, YDG was thrilled to promote several current employees into a new, advanced roles, within and across departments.
