Pros

Benefits, employee caring, good working environment. Reasonable pay and good internal communication on new products/ policies. Great employee engagement and communication chanel for staff to voice out.

Cons

Lack planning for People growth, human resources. Some projects are done for the sake of it and we don’t really improve anything.

Pros

Discount, Health Benefits, Allowance for Clothing, Pension and 401k, and nothing else I can think of for the time being.

Cons

Not a company with feedback culture, regardless of whether you solicit it or attempt to provide it professionally. A lot of wheels spinning with no outcome. Over abundance of “collaboration” that leads to no results or too many opinions to make a decision. In stores, you’ll also find the stereotypical environment one would expect from this type of brand (cattiness, talking behind the back, etc). That said, HQ teams are a bit more down to earth. A lot of fear to ever pull triggers because “this is the way it’s always been done”. Caution: careful with working for a privately held employer that has no one to report back to but themselves. Decisions (that actually get made) are usually not the best and cause ripple effects of issues down the road.
