Pros

Good experience and looks good on a resume. Full-time work, and company RSP contributions. There are company parties during the holidays and a few throughout the year. Paid vacation and some free toys.

Cons

The retail ops management is impossible to work for, and creates a toxic environment within the department. Retail ops management manages through intimidation, and has no undertsanding on how to manage people.

Pros

Some new energy late in the year; hopefully it stays. Career path seems to be a big deal, which is good. Creative environment, yet messy. A lot of autonomy (which can be bad). Bagels. Free toys and an additional day off because of a Canadian holiday.

Cons

Zero executive management and leadership in the Los Angeles office; Toronto execs come once a month, if that, and stay in meetings then dish out change or orders like a bull in a china shop. Top heavy; many directors and several VP's but no real leader on-site. Seems like accountability is nonexistent and rules & guidelines are ignored, not even broken. Poor communication between management and staff and between colleagues. There is a sense that anyone that's not a Director, is a peon. Accounting is usually always late to pay bills; no on-site accounting or payroll. HR seems disorganized.

Pros

great benefits, free weekly snacks, very chic looking building, easy access for commute

Cons

the Senior director and most of the leadership do not have people skills. They expect employees to just do what they are told and not challege or ask questions. You could be having the worst day of your life and they wouldnt bat an eye, they'd just want you to get the job done.
