I interviewed here and I was disgusted. I dislike AG, their retail locations and products cause me anxiety and depression. I interviewed and submitted my resume in some gross fascination with how the place looks inside. Disgusting re-enters my thoughts. This place looks like the Office Space movie with an exponent for sprawling obsolescence layers into AGed infrastructure.
The people I interviewed with were doltish, unattractive, boring and I would generally like to watch them do my laundry. In the process they will also write birthday cards to people I dislike who have died. I still have addresses of remaining survivors in the dreaded city of Cleveland where American Greetings was founded. The goofball that walked me through to my interview room had the clumsy pride to refer to desk spaces and team structure as 'pods'. This must have some resonance with flower pods and their rosebud logo. My only discovery and conclusion in the matter is that he was retarded.
I understand a new building in Crocker Park is being constructed. The longer sustainability of the company is questionable with building delays, uncertain corporate entity existence, and declining financials. They have a technology branch subsidiary with dubious name of American Greetings Interactive. Hope for the best pod crew.
