"I have worked for Overstock for over 2 years. At first it was great, but then there was some restructuring on the executive level. The result was a huge increase in the amount of micro-management that takes place. Nearly three times a week, the executives review the new content to be deployed hours before the end of the day when they are due. Because they feel the need to be involved in every single change this leads to changes that must be made last minute."

"Great company but lay off developers too often. My friend got laid off and hired back to Overstock 3 times.Many developers left because of instability."
