Pros

processes are clear and sound. many different roles to choose from with a few years experience. Work life balance is great and flexible working environment when needed.

Cons

If you get into the club and promote yourself you can move fast. it is not about results it is about networking. being different is not looked at positively, it is more important to fit it.

Pros

Great culture and truly amazing coworkers. Strong company history of success with iconic brands.

Cons

The company is going through a super tough season. Lots of jobs being moved offshore and it feels like nonstop restructuring / job loss. Job security feels very tenuous and morale is low.
