Vantaggi

The insurance is great, there's a lot of free stuff and it's fundamentally impossible to screw anything up any worse than it already is.

Svantaggi

The company mission is a complete sham.You're there to prop up the fragile egos of people who need to believe they are "leaders" in spite of volumes of evidence to the contrary. Questioning their supreme authority in all matters is a major offense punishable by petty dismissiveness and smarmy snark, but they'll never actually fire you because they know they can't recruit anyone else to put up with them in less than 6 months' time. It's an incredibly toxic passive-aggressive environment dominated by whoever throws the biggest tantrum. If you are in any way competent at anything all you will ever be allowed to do is clean up the messes of senior leadership and watch them re-make that exact same mess over and over again no matter how many times they fail. The only thing anyone actually cares about is getting rich "influencers" to post pictures of Brandless products on Instagram and it gets old real fast. The site is riddled with serious bugs that are never addressed, the products are all things you can buy literally anywhere else, most are of embarrassingly poor quality and no one's figured out how to ship any of them safely yet because the fulfillment workers are paid virtually nothing. And all the five star reviews up here are coerced if not completely fake. Employees are routinely encouraged to go post new ones to offset all the negative because that's a lot easier than actually improving the culture. Super classy.

Risposta di Brandless

Thank you for writing a review. It sounds like you were truly unhappy at Brandless and I hope you have found something that is a better fit for you personally. While I disagree with your perspective, I appreciate that it is your right to share your feedback - whatever it may be - in this forum. However, there are two statements you made in your post that are wholly untrue, so I want to make sure anyone reading this in the future isn't mislead. Firstly, we do not run our own fulfillment centers nor employ workers in them (as we partner with a third party logistics provider) and therefore Brandless does not determine or influence their workers' pay. Secondly, as the leader of our People Team, I can attest that we have never coerced or even encouraged employees to provide reviews (not to mention 5-star reviews) on Glassdoor. All of the reviews on this page come at their writers' own discretion, and we are grateful to receive all the honest feedback so we can continue to learn and build our culture.

Vantaggi

Thoroughly loved my time and the team at Brandless prior to the CEO change and company shakeup in late 2023. Bright, hardworking, incredible people. 5 Star CEO and company leadership prior to late 2023.

Svantaggi

The owner/board does not honor their commitments or contracts. They are both in the company, and in community, disparaging their former and current employees with a false narrative. They lack integrity and the business strategy to take the company where it could have gone. I would warn anyone against doing business with the owner/board. The new CEO and team lacked the experience needed and were fed false information, which will inhibit their ability to grow.
