Pros

If you like frat parties, can BS your way through anything, are under 30, and will accept a below market wage to work at a "hip" place, then UA is for you.

Cons

Lack of transparency, development, personal interest in families, below market pay, immature behavior, no leadership or vision, etc. This place has fooled itself and its people. No direction for the company an employees suffer.

Pros

- Cool events to attend if you are a director or above - Great discounts - but that's a given at most companies - Great health benefits - again a given at most companies - Pockets of down-to-earth people - Kevin Plank is an amazing public speaker - lots of energy with a clear message - Great stock options - again price of admission for any worthwhile company - Bonus - Accountability (double edged sword)

Cons

- Work/Life balance non-existent, if you aren't prepared to give 200% of your life (not just time, I repeat life) and be available 24/7/365 this may not be the job for you - Nepotism/Cronyism - as others have noted, if you aren't in the inner circle don't bank on a promotion - you may get one if you exceed expectations (true for any company) and if your boss fights for your promotion. If and when you get that promotion - negotiate as hard as you can at that point to get the most you can for salary/benefits/bonus/options. - Hero-to-Zero - As others have mentioned you can go from hero-to-zero in no time flat, it's real and you need to be aware of this. I doesn't take much to go from hero-to-zero with the constant turnover - you can have a great boss one minute that supports you and a new boss the next minute who wants to bring in their people. - High turnover - especially at Executive level, this has a huge impact on moral and direction of company which changes frequently based on who's 'in-charge'.
