Vantaggi
The $ and network for the potential to have an inspiring, inclusive product line and community of women. Non director level staff is hard working and generally kind.
Svantaggi
As stated in other reviews, the upper management team is horrendous. They recently let a bunch of people ago, and now the junior team fears that they could be next. The lack of respect, amount of bullying (which is passed off by "jokes"), and overall mess that is the CEO & director level staff, is comical...specifically comments this summer about food choices/dieting. They're just plain cruel. If it's not their way, you're wrong. As someone else mentioned, even when armed with the analytics to show why something was done, at the end of the day, it's the CEO's way, period, even when it is not what's best for the company. The turnover rate is un-comprehensible, especially as of late. Watching one specific department have a new hire basically every month for over a year, was embarrassing. If something seems "off" or "wrong" upper team is quick to make drastic changes or to get rid of people in the position it relates to. The culture is so toxic, they brought in a "life coach" that upper management has to have routine meetings with, that are essentially therapy sessions re: the CEO. It is hard to show up every day supporting a "mama community" when the image projected is primarily thin, blonde non pregnant models, all hand picked by the elitist CEO herself. If real mama's could be a fly on the wall, they'd run for the hills before supporting this brand. It's hard showing up each day to support a company that is all talk and an office environment that is the opposite of what the company "stands for". Working on holidays is a bonus to the madness.
