Vantaggi
Overstock / Beyond used to be one of the gems along Silicone Slopes in terms of work culture and a place to grow your career. There are still many great IC's there that are working hard to survive. As soon as the Board allowed JJ to be removed and his successor to be installed things have gone horribly wrong.
Svantaggi
5 rounds of layoffs in 2024 with the final one two weeks before Christmas. The entire executive team has been fired and some positions twice since the new Chairman took the reigns. Transparency, collaboration, and communication are all gone, nobody dares share their opinion. It's a one man show and the proof are in the financial results. There is no actionable business plan with the purchase of two bankrupt businesses combined with the parent headed into bankruptcy. There is no product distinction for any of the brands, customers are confused, Google's algorithms are confused, and there is no plan to fix it.
