Pros

Great people, healthy work-life balance, good benefits package, and vacations.

Kontras

I really enjoyed the flexibility of the company's hybrid remote work model in the past, but recent decisions have been disappointing. It feels as though many perks have been removed from employees in recent months, with no meaningful benefits introduced to balance the change. The lack of bonuses in 2024 and the conditional nature of extra perks (requiring employees to post positive messages on LinkedIn for extra summer days off) have been discouraging. Additionally, the sudden announcement of a return-to-office policy, without a clear purpose beyond preferring a fuller office environment, because nobody likes to "come to an empty office" felt abrupt and out of touch with employee feedback. Closing "The most loved workplace survey a day" before this this announcement also raised concerns about transparency.

Pros

There are so many Pros it's nearly impossible to list them all out. Here are the top 3: 1) Culture. An ambiguous term thrown around in corporate environments. To me; it's collective and shared work experiences. When we win, we celebrate together. When we fail, we acknowledge, accept accountability, learn and move on. 2) Did I mention we celebrate together? O2E hosts some of the best company bonding events. From Christmas Parties to Quarterly Connects; our diverse group of colleagues value our time spent getting to know one another. 3) Local Teams & Management - O2e and its brands do a remarkable job at assigning management and leadership roles to the best people, and that results in a very cohesive team environment.

Kontras

At times, progress can feel slowed down by red tape.

Pros

It used to be work from home, but that's now changing in 2025 with them having us come in 3 days a week every other week.

Kontras

I’d strongly recommend staying far away from O2E Brands. There’s a common piece of advice when job hunting: if you see mostly long-term employees mixed with a constant stream of new hires, it’s a red flag. I wish I’d taken that advice myself—this place has a cult-like vibe. People with common sense, a backbone, and some self-respect rarely last beyond a year or two; they either leave or get pushed out. They try to hook you with the vacation package and the 'awards' for company culture, but what they don’t tell you is that employees are promised extra paid time off if they complete those surveys with favorable feedback. I’ve spoken with countless coworkers who are unhappy here but play along just to get a break and escape the workplace. And I can’t blame them; things have only gotten worse year after year. Starting in 2025, they’re making everyone come back to the office three days a week, which I’m sure will lead to a wave of resignations since many people stay only for the remote work flexibility. Leadership keeps grasping at straws, changing strategies every few months. It’s honestly a joke—they clearly don’t know how to handle the changing industry or competitors. They’ll bring in a new VP, and six months later, they’re gone, never to be mentioned again. Meanwhile, the CEO seems more focused on appearances on 'Dragon’s Den' than on fixing things here. My advice: believe the negative reviews. The way they treat people here is concerning, and it’s not changing anytime soon.
