Pros

4 Free toys at Christmas.

Cons

Poor management from corporate office. We have had a revolving door of National Managers. Last one had no personality or management skills, but was buddies with his superiors. Was an absentee manager for a year, and then replaced by someone most likely plucked from a nearby cubicle. Constant pressure to sell product into stores with no incentive. We used to have incentive programs to earn extra money. Now they are offering the chance to win toys. Very cheap and humiliating way to motivate and incentivise employees. The worst part, is we just had our reviews, and were told that we would not see our merit increase until July, and that it would not be retroactive. What a joke! I'm glad this review is anonymous, because I am embarrassed to say I work for them.

Pros

Bagel day, great office location

Cons

Management does not keep the best in class staff. A lot of staff just walk around looking busy with made up titles. It's all about who can suck up to management.
