 Management is very inexperienced at all levels. Head of Human resources does not respect employees. 
There is not enough work so count on about 28 of your 40 hour weeks to be spent "deep cleaning". 
They offer incentivized positions but delay actually paying those wages for 8 weeks. They do not backpay to the date the raise should have gone into effect. They awarded a performance based raise and then refused to pay it. They will not provide you with the criteria for anything in writing even if you ask. If you do really well at your job they can (and did) dismiss a months worth of numbers that directly determine the incentived wages. Not sure how this isn't wage theft. 
Beware! This place is a racket. Coworkers are some of the kindest, most welcoming, open minded people I have ever worked with. Unfortunately everything else there is a disappointment. 


The company uses a strict point-based attendance system and does not offer sick days, which can make it difficult for employees to manage illness or personal emergencies. Leadership support is limited, and employees often feel unsupported when challenges arise. Communication from ownership is minimal and typically only occurs when something is needed. Opportunities for growth are extremely limited, and advancement appears to be based on favoritism rather than performance or experience. Requests for basic resources—such as company merchandise for brand promotion or invitations to industry events hosted by the company—are often denied and framed as entitlement rather than professional development.
Employee appreciation efforts feel minimal and last-minute, especially given the company’s financial success. Company events lack planning and investment, which can leave employees feeling undervalued.

This Company has utterly incompetent upper management. Their leadership is by far the worst. The inability to effectively communicate or furthermore, own up to their own inappropriate behaviors is unrealistic. They will quickly write and or terminate employees for time and attendance, all while they come and go as they please. Lets not forget to mention the favoritism is real, especially to the ones they have relations with, they to do whatever they want without consequences. They will lie and throw anyone under and constantly change the policies to save theirselves. They made rules as they got complaints. Their own personal feelings of you determined your employment with them, not your performance. If you did anything to put pressure on them, you were a target.

As you begin your time there, the company promotes an amazing sense of belonging. A work culture that almost seems unreal. That's because it is. Depending on what department you're in dictates a lot of your experience but ultimately HR has full control. In some cases that could be a good thing. Not in this one. HR is awful. Your trajectory within the company is based off of person feelings within the HR department and not an employees work performance. Disciplinary actions also tend to be made on personal feelings and emotionally based. As a newer company, decisions seem to be made without being thoroughly thought out. The policies change constantly without clear communication or explanations. The immediate supervisors and management are not the issue, it is beyond that. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
None. Other than as a possible entry-level opportunity to enter the industry.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The place is so utterly toxic that they are ALWAYS understaffed. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Upper Management constantly gets ahead by putting out fires THEY caused using the non-salaried employees solutions. Solutions which, more often than not, were pointed out before the fires burned out of control.

This company doesn't plan ahead well so 99% of their plans are reactionary at best. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy. Because you are short staffed be prepared to do 3 or 4 people's workload/positions but only get paid for 1.

Wouldn’t recommend working here. Especially at the Hagerstown location. The General Manager is very unprofessional and needs quid pro quo training. There is way too much favoritism and not to mention, segregation. They change the handbook whenever they see fit and in that handbook it says that “employees may work in other departments if asked my management and will not be compensated for it” each department gets paid differently ie. harvesters get paid less than cultivators and IPM employees, but they’ll have a Harvester work in those departments all day without equal pay. They would do the same with the trimmers. Trimmers get paid incentives for trimming, but if a harvester goes to trim for the day, they get paid base pay. That’s not equal employment opportunity. Something has to change. 

Inexperienced, unprofessional management; poor training process; extremely loud working environment due to loud music being played, incentivized positions in areas of quality control.  95% of the people I worked with were great, too much of a “good ole boy” system in place with the managers and communication was extremely poor.  Medical facility that seems like it’s ran by a bunch of stoners.  5 day work week with 8-430 hours means dr appts and other “normal business hours” errands can only be done with PTO and it’s very limited.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Your going to work hard and get fired because the company isn’t make money 
The flagship store doesn’t give the employees it’s earned tips 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not getting your tips that the customers has given 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Company will lie and then you understand they don’t care about it’s employees unless your cool with upper management 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Not making profits because the company doesn’t care about its customers

When you begin working here, you never expect it, but these people become your family. The management and employees here are so down to earth and such kind human beings. This is a place that can change your life. The jobs are actually very interesting, and the people are even more interesting. There is almost never a dull moment here. If you feel like an outsider, then they won’t let you be for very long. Meeting these people and doing this job completely changed my mental health for the better. Such a wonderful, relaxing place to work. Even when it gets hectic. I couldn’t ask for a better job. 

It smells good! Met some great people!  Overall a clean facility. Upper management could use much more training in several categories. Breakroom and fitting rooms are in the same area. Schedule was great and overall my favorite job. Unfortunately the company ultimately doesn’t have the right people in management to follow through when there are serious issues with workplace violence etc… which is a shame because the job was absolutely fantastic and I loved it! Sad that I had to make a decision to leave.
