Pros

Decent pay; discount to the website

Cons

Terrible culture and work-life balance. The hours are long, with no clear strategy and constantly shifting priorities. If you push back and reduce hours, the time you do spend at work will be stressful. The attitude at Chewy is very much "everything is urgent", which quickly leads to burnout and employee apathy. The fringe benefits (healthcare, etc.) are very expensive compared to other companies of this size. No bonuses, or employee stock purchase plan. If you're lucky enough to get a signing bonus, it comes with a ridiculous 2-year claw-back.

Pros

I am an artist and I get to do an art-related job. The schedule is flexible when things pop up. I get health insurance and 401k and a lot of free food, and there is free gym access in the office building. The people I work with are all generally very cool, friendly, and/or fun to work with.

Cons

The pay rate is below the industry standard for production artists. I am not able to afford a place of my own. I live with my parents and I work another job to supplement my income. I am basically surviving and able to pay all my bills, but I would not be able to live a full life on my own with the pay rate as it is now. The work culture portrays itself as progressive and inclusive place but it is the typical corporate toxic environment.
