Pros

Hires at a higher pay rate than sister brands like Gap and Banana. Not just a "selling" mentality but more of a "listening" approach. No credit card to push. Awesome, functional and great-quality product that sells itself.

Cons

There is always one in mgmt that needs to try harder in being more active and acting the part of Athleta a little more.

Pros

Very black & white on policies. You always know what is right or wrong.Operationally strong company that allows movement between brands. Decent pay if you advocate for yourself as an external, but don’t expect much once you’re in.

Cons

Company has changed direction so much since COVID. Seems like there’s no clear idea on who we are anymore.Senior leadership feels like a revolving door that only succeeds in spinning tires with no traction. We love to initiate something only to either sunset it months later or leave it in limbo(WellPro). The amount of stress pushed on stores to meet credit goals is absurd to the point it inspires unethical behaviors in certain stores.
