Pros

Employee discount---ended up buying too many clothes, mainly (final) sales. Some of the managers were more understanding that I had a life.

Cons

Most of the managers quickly became into backstabbing individuals that don't consider that the current state of the economy prevents us from meeting the goals. They play favorites and the schedule is not flexible enough to enjoy a normal life when you are going to school.

Pros

For the most part, the people genuinely care about you, your growth and your career. The culture and work/life balance are second to none.

Cons

To get to the higher levels of senior management is a long and slow process. In most cases, you need a position above you to be vacated for you to move up.

Pros

Im very lucky to work with great people who are ultra supportive and respectful of one another. Very casual and diverse atmosphere. Benefits packages from health care to employee discount to PTO are generous.

Cons

Focus on development and how to advance is lacking. Compensation package is on the low side of the average. Very top heavy (Manager, Sr. Manager, Director, Sr. Director, etc.). Some middle/upper management folks are a bit too aggressive and inconsiderate. Employees who continually perform well are not recognized enough.
