Pros

The management is good, that depends on the location Good health insurance (about $36 per pay period , almost everywhere is in network) Employee stock program (up to $15 per pay period, if you contribute $70 yourself) 401k match (6%)

Cons

Perpetually short staffed/behind due to corporate saying we are over hours. This goes for every department. When someone calls out, they expect you to pick up the slack, will never call someone else in Expects you to get all of your work done while also sending you to all different departments to cover their shortcomings (because of point 1) Doable productivity standards if this is you’re one job, forget about it if you have a second No associate discount on anything except fresh produce

Pros

At the corporate level, the benefits and compensation are excellent. Colleagues at the producer level are standout teammates, talented, collaborative, and genuinely invested in the company's success. They consistently bring forward meaningful contributions and make the day-to-day work rewarding.

Cons

"Chaos" is not a word I'm using loosely. It's the word echoed across teams, including outside of Experience and Product. Leadership operates in a constant state of upheaval: frequent role changes, structural reorganizations, and strategy pivots that are implemented without any clear plan or consideration of cross-team impact. Incredibly talented people are let go as a result of poor leadership and people management decisions. There is no real culture of mentorship above the senior manager level. Leadership above the senior manager level made clear that mentorship isn't their responsibility and that you're expected to figure it out on your own, despite the company having training resources available. That disconnect is telling.
