Pros
Fantastic co-workers. I couldn't ask for a better, more creative team to be working alongside.
Kontras
Complete dishonesty from management. They mass-hired with the promise of job security and full-time employment after 90 days, and then laid off an entire 1/3 of the company once our backlog was worked through- including the people who had worked the longest and hardest to make Threadflip Full-Service successful. There's no transparency in the workplace. They're cutting the hours of full-time warehouse employees to 35 hours/week. Catty workplace politics. No room for advancement, despite the promise thereof upon hiring. HR is impossible to get a hold of. Management and HQ treat the Full-Service Warehouse like the ugly stepchild, not caring about workplace contentment and pushing for people to meet unrealistic goals. The Warehouse was moved from a convenient location in SF's Dogpatch to a run-down warehouse with faulty electrical and no proper climate control in Oakland that is completely inaccessible via public transit (which most employees are reliant upon) and has only one overpriced restaurant in walking distance for lunch breaks.
Threadflip very quickly went from being a fun, educational workplace with plenty of room for professional growth to being a dull, and quite frankly upsetting, factory job.
