So much potential, but so frustrating with poor brand decisions.
Pros
Stable (well, my team won't get re-orged and is very safe), great medical benefits, nice work from home policy next to tech of course, generally nice people
Cons
Horrible leadership decision making. They don't understand the current marketplace opportunity, most people work in Germany and truly don't have the best barometer of what works in North America. Brand doesn't like to take risks, so will never grow. Extremely disconnected over comms, media content, brand, product, sales, and merchandising. Don't seem to care about missing opportunities or communicating across teams. People have too much work because our systems are from the early 2000s and it eats away at workload efficiency. This leads to complacency once you achieve what title you want here, and half will continue helping and half will just shutdown and take their paycheck with "opportunistic" effort given when it's needed. They don't pay people enough. Anyone who's younger than 30 will probably be very frustrated with the "old" way of doing things that you finally realize is what's holding everyone back. Whole brand needs to grow a pair and act boldly.
