Pros

The people employed are hard workers. There's nothing that you won't learn here. Some of the nicest people you'll meet, work at Vans. And along with the great environment, the company is ultimately based on expressing yourself. There is no guidelines as to who can and can not work here. To top off the great environment and great people, the employee benefits that Vans gives, is absolutely the best. I've never worked for another company that gave their employees such great discounts on their merchandise. You seriously can't go wrong with working here.

Cons

Being in the company for almost 5+ Years, I've seen less people get promoted internally rather than externally. It's a sad thing when someone who has never had retail experience, yet has "credentials" gets outweighed on employment opportunities. I've seen people with experience who know the ins and outs of a store yet get pushed to the side when a position is available, in the higher echelons of this company. Also, as much as I'd hate to say it, unless you have previous retail experience or have a friend currently in the company to vouch for you, getting in is kind of difficult.
