      Fascinating, and at times boring.

      Pros

      Amazing technology, and the size of the company ensures all feedback has a chance to reach the executive team. Company truly cares about every owner, and strives to do it's best in supporting their ownership. Fascinating product pipeline! Medical benefits are the best I've ever seen.

      Cons

      Once you leave the "mothership", the retail stores are quite boring - setup is a mix of standard retail roles and mini-commission setup. Very little focus on team achievement other than verbal.

      Regional Managers are not effective leaders!

      Pros

      Amazing visionary, the company goals are very clear. The product is exciting to talk about and sell.

      Cons

      The Regional Managers are very inexperienced and lack basic leadership skills. There is little to no communication, lack of trust in the workplace so no one feels safe to come up with new ideas or challenge red tape, teamwork isn't encouraged because the RSM's need total control of everything, zero empowerment. The Owner Advisors are expected to be little solders and are not supported when they try new things to drive sales this is due to the RSM having no backbone or confidence. The insecurities and egos of the RSM's (one in particular that is given way to much credit by the current Global Sales Manager) is the absolute worst of all.

      Pros

      Fun, fast paced, dynamic setting. Excellent product. Innovative and scrappy environment. It is great to work for a company that is truly changing an industry. Many people very hard working people.

      Cons

      Violent outbursts from upper management. No work-life balance. Little direction from superiors about company or personal goals. Little recognition for accomplishments.
