Native Sun Wellness

Native Sun is a fast-moving, vertically integrated cannabis company where no two days are the same. If you’re someone who enjoys wearing multiple hats, solving problems in real time, and contributing beyond a narrow job description, this can be a rewarding place to work.

The team is passionate, collaborative, and deeply invested in producing high-quality cannabis while staying compliant in a challenging regulatory environment. Leadership gives room for autonomy and creativity, especially for employees who take initiative and ownership of their role.

Like most companies in the cannabis industry, the pace can be intense and priorities can shift quickly, so adaptability is key. Overall, Native Sun is a strong environment for people who want hands-on experience, responsibility, and the chance to help shape a growing brand.

Although I liked the mix of video, remote, and on-site interviews, parts of the process felt unprofessional, and there was no scheduling flexibility. Full availability was expected right away.
One clear positive was their extensive self-teaching program, which was genuinely helpful and something many local companies don’t offer.
Unfortunately, benefits don’t start until 90 days in, and chronic understaffing meant employees often had to juggle multiple roles while being underpaid compared to local industry standards.
The punctuality policy was extremely strict and inconsistent. Even with a supposed 5-minute grace period, arrivals within that window could still count against you. This was especially difficult for employees relying on public transportation, as there are no nearby transit stops or stations, and not everyone has access to a car despite the parking lot.

As far as cannabis companies go, I couldn't ask for too much better. Just like any cannabis company, the pay could be better, and there is always at least a small fear of job security. However, the leadership is passionate about what they do and has a better head on their shoulders than majority of the other operations in the state. The COO is a tough cookie, but if you prove yourself, he's someone that will be in your corner. If you're looking to freshly enter the cannabis industry, I would caution you to pick a different industry but if you're set on giving it a try, there are FAR worse places to work than Native Sun

What is the best part of working at the company?
A fee of my coworkers. The store looks nice at first then gets dull. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Zero communication from management. They will have you sell tickets to an event. That event got canceled the day of but corporate said nothing. The COO was fired & I found out through a vendor not a boss

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Gossip,
Clickish,
Immature 
Lazy and low moral

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It’s easy. You count a drawer and fill people’s orders answering any questions they have. You get some regular which is nice

Native Sun is an inclusive and positive environment, dedicated to helping employees become the best versions of themselves. Employees definitely get out what they put in here. Folks who aren't interested in wellness or hospitality or do not desire professional growth may not enjoy working here. 

Native Sun has challenged me to take on responsibilities I've never faced before and supported me to master them. The overall culture is based around positivity and professional service. Native Sun has continued to improve communication and consistency since I joined. Native Sun is fun and enjoyable!

Pros: nothing. 

Cons: paid so low that it is insulting. Terrible insurance. No support at all. Management is toxic and hostile. This job is stressful for no reason and it’s because of management. Very micro managing. It’s a pot shop - it shouldn’t be as stressful as it is. You will be working 10+ hours on thin mats with no chairs. No downtime because they expect you to do busy work when it’s dead and no one has come in for the past two hours. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The free samples. Other than that there was nothing good about working here.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working with people who ca not do their job. And a Supervisor who was never present.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Oppressive, restricted, and overall miserable.

Great place to work. I felt valued by my upper management! My direct manager no but she ended up getting let go/left. But upper management is great which is a rare find in this industry. I’ve worked in cannabis for 5 years in 3 states. This is the most beautiful dispo I have worked at. 

Poor upper management who care very little about employees even though they claim to care. They did mass layoffs 2 weeks before christmas, they undermine you and its all about favoritism there. They over work you and take advantage of you. I wouldn't recommend working here.
