Pros

Great foundation of company culture Strong world-class brands Strong external partnerships

Cons

Layoffs every year without strong support from management Lack of training for managers; people are promoted for strong work ethic without the necessary skills to move into management Microsoft Office programs are outdated Management is focused on minutia rather than the big picture Work-life balance is not as strong as it used to be; employees often work through lunch and late into the evening

Pros

-Diverse and inclusive -Free gym -My immediate team is great. They're supportive and really seem to care about our wellbeing and morale -Casual dress code

Cons

-It's retail, we're on a sinking ship and have been for the last decade with slow turnaround -Took away additional hybrid day despite no actual need to be in office (4x a week) in which we sit on video calls with remote teams -Compromise safety during severe weather despite area school closures -FREQUENT layoffs (have been 2x a year for the last several years) -Below average compensation (I've been told by previous management that it's lower by thousands of $$) -HR will say one thing in writing to avoid outrage then follow a completely different directive -Work life balance used to be more flexible since CEO takeover -Frequent promotions for senior leadership but few for those in the lower levels
