Pros

Vermont is a great place to live although the remote work policy makes this irrelevant. Some truly nice people work here and the employee discount is good. Great place to learn what not to do if you have a masochistic streak and some time to kill.

Cons

Nepo CEO surrounded by sycophants and importing an endless parade of untalented, unqualified, disconnected, fast-talking leadership with no feel for the brand. Toxic culture. Terrible morale. Performative HR pretending to care. It honestly feels like they are actively trying to destroy the business so they have an excuse to sell it. Sadly, it could easily be a success in the right hands.
