Vantaggi

The employee discount on the product is the only pro.

Svantaggi

It’s unfortunate that zero stars isn’t an option, as that would more accurately reflect my experience with this company. As many others have noted, leadership is a significant concern. The organization is led by individuals who often appear disorganized and insecure, which creates confusion and inconsistency across teams. During the interview process, candidates are told the company values self-starters who can think critically and propose solutions. In reality, employees at the manager level and below are expected to follow directives without question. Attempting to think independently or challenge ideas is not encouraged and can lead to negative consequences. Micromanagement is pervasive, and there is a noticeable tendency to assume the worst in employees rather than foster trust. The workplace culture is further impacted by frequent gossip, unprofessional communication, and leadership tolerating—if not encouraging—discussions about colleagues behind their backs. Support systems are also lacking. HR is not a reliable resource for resolving concerns, as there appears to be a strong bias toward protecting senior employees. In some cases, raising issues can make situations worse rather than better. Overall, the environment feels toxic, and the high turnover—despite not being openly acknowledged—is indicative of deeper organizational problems. Like others, I initially dismissed negative reviews on Glassdoor as isolated frustrations. In hindsight, I regret that assumption and would strongly encourage prospective employees to take these patterns seriously when considering this company.

Vantaggi

Juliska is a smaller company in the best possible way. You get to know leadership personally, and you can actually see the impact of your work on the business and on some truly amazing brands. It’s a place where you can leave your mark, not to fill a role. Where you are a name, not just a position. There is a genuine focus on the individual here, from thoughtful benefits, that really support employees, to a willingness to invest in people‘s growth and development. If you’re looking for a company where your voice is heard, and your contributions matter, this is it.

Svantaggi

Because the company is lean, workloads can be heavier at times and priorities can move quickly. That said, it also creates opportunities for departments to come together, support one another, and collaborate on projects that you might never touch at a larger, more siloed organization. It is something to be aware of if you prefer a more narrowly defined role.

Vantaggi

My time at Juliska was meaningful, formative, and something I genuinely look back on with affection. I loved working there. I loved the owners, and I truly loved my coworkers—there is real heart in the people who make up the brand, and that’s not something you find everywhere. On the positive side, Juliska offers a strong employee discount and a culture that does encourage you to develop your skills. There’s an emphasis on learning, improving, and growing professionally, which I appreciated and benefited from during my time there.

Svantaggi

That said, the experience wasn’t without its challenges. There is a level of micromanagement and internal bottlenecks that can lead to frustration, slow decision-making, and unnecessary stress. At times, small issues were treated like emergencies, which created anxiety and felt disproportionate to the actual stakes. I also often felt that my skill set and strategic thinking were underutilized. While growth potential is frequently discussed, the reality is that the company struggles with how to support and advance to manager and senior-level or executive-minded employees. There isn’t a clear or true path for growth at any level, which can feel limiting if you’re ready to contribute more strategically. Overall, Juliska is a beautiful brand with wonderful people and a lot of heart. My experience there helped shape me professionally, and I’m grateful for it—but there are structural and leadership challenges that, if addressed, could make it an even better place to grow and thrive.
