Pros

Good salary level, huge discounts on shoes and 50$ gift card every quater, informal attire in the office, fun events oraganized inside and outside the campus.

Cons

In the department I worked the level of knowledge of the system is very low, from the supervisors, who are useless, to the employees who are not so talended and willing to learn new things, also they are lazy. But the worst thing was the upper management unable to see the real problems, take decisions and make the effort to improve the bad processes that are in place. Lack of transparancy and honesty hurt me so much. I was also disgusted by the general environment of that department. No fun at all, discrimation, bad communication and a fishy atmosphere. In a huge company I felt completely alone with my work issues and my unbearable workload and nobody really listened to me and my suggestions on how to improve things, they just faked to listen to me and then they didn't help at all. The core values are just empty words repeated during town hall meetings. Such a sad and terrible experience.

Pros

Strong global brand recognition and the opportunity to work with talented colleagues across multiple functions and backgrounds. The environment can provide broad exposure, fast-paced experience, and significant responsibility. Despite wider organizational challenges, many peer-level teams remained collaborative and supportive.

Cons

In my experience, the culture felt highly top-down and heavily cost-constrained, with limited openness to employee initiative or new ideas. Workloads and expectations were often unrealistic, contributing to burnout and an unhealthy work-life balance, while teams frequently operated understaffed. Significant extra effort, including long hours and cross-functional collaboration, did not consistently translate into recognition, advancement, or long-term stability. Career progression often felt unpredictable, and opportunities sometimes appeared inconsistent or influenced by favoritism. Communication around organizational changes could be abrupt, creating uncertainty across teams. Employees were regularly expected to take on responsibilities outside their core expertise without sufficient support, which negatively impacted morale and overall job satisfaction. Compensation, benefits, and flexibility also felt less competitive compared to others in the footwear industry, while discussions around salary growth and professional development lacked transparency. Over time, the internal culture appeared to decline, creating a growing disconnect between the company’s external brand image and the employee experience.
