Fully remote work is the only benefit worth mentioning. The rest are average and below average.
There's almost no transparency, no way to hold the leadership accountable, feels like a shining ship.
Fully remote work and reasonable work like balance, but that varies by team.
Nothing, the CEO allows and encourages the most shady business practices. He micromanages everything. Customers most always leave bad reviews and no one cares
Replace the CEO, CFO, CPO, CTO clean house most of the leadership is terrible.
This question isn't really relative. They haven't en masse in years. Most hires are critical backfills once an employee gets wise and moves on.
In my experience the compensation at Houzz is below average. Lots of former employees left for more compensation.
The representation is good, but execution of internal DEI programming is stale at best.
Fully remote work, a reasonable work life balance, and the layoffs keep me here.
The company paid it's people on time.
The company started out as a very dynamic company, but soon it was clear the leadership team lacked any knowledge of retail or business fundamentals and sorely lacked leadership outside of a sales culture that was lead by the nose with Starbucks giftcards. The company only valued females who were yes'gals. Smiley and typical, nonsensical-bubbly dispositions, were revered more than real world experience and the company was always reluctant to ask difficult questions, let alone face the realities of the business. The fact they the company as to day, 2/26/2024 has not gone IPO or had an exit strategy since the company inception in 2006 (how the investors continue to let this happen is beyond me), shows you the extraordinary lack of leadership. The company blew through millions of dollars opening overseas offices, over hiring low wage employees, over marketing, only to find out that when the rubber hit the road, they didn't have the chops to take the company public after several CFO exits, including the CFO from LinkedIn, who quickly departed after seeing the absurdity of the leadership team.
Free Nespresso coffee and snacks.
Zero, nothing, the CEO was miserable person who was a know-it-all, usually even pushing her husband around who was the President. The rest of the leadership team acquiesced to save their paychecks.
Fire the CEO and President, and start over.
The compensation as you will see from their peers is far below average. Dont' bother.
Not diverse, mostly women, mostly young and inexperienced caucasians.
Leaving for the day.
The office environment, employees, company culture, dress code, work-life balance, and gym membership discount.
Lack of career progression, employer responsiveness, leadership favoritism, lack of tranparency.
