Recent Reviews About Powells

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Interacting with my co-workers, and being able to meet authors and work with books

Answer from Sales Dept.

A shared love of books and nerd culture, and due to the demographic of the staff, very queer too. It's welcoming in a way I thought I wouldn't experience again since graduating school.

Answer from Sales Dept.

Very inclusive and most of the people who are hired here are well read and have a mountain of work experience

What are some of the best things about your team?

Just talking, getting to know each other. What books we like. Telling jokes. A safe space to vent or ask for help. In general, people are really nice

My coworkers are a blast to work with, many employees are creatives, writers, artists, musicians and their backgrounds bring a lot to the table when handselling books our curating store displays.

Answer from Sales Dept.

My team of unionized employees are educated, highly capable, and highly undervalued people. They are diverse, they are resourceful, funny, impeccable people and the most collaborative and inspiring workforce I've ever had the privilege of working with.
