It's a great place to get experienced but career advancement is very very slow. - Anonymous employee Collective Brands Employee Review

It was an enjoyable experience to work with the people at that job. Everyone got along, knew their jobs, helped each other when someone needed help.

I don't think any cons

Very large company with excellent benefits. Very aggressive with growth, reaching new markets here and throughout the world.

The message which is very positive from the Corporate Level does not seem to filter down to the Division Level. At the division level you find rather old fashioned management that do very poorly at creating a team environment. Reviews, praise were rarely given. Goals were set that were unrealistic and made reaching bonuses impossible. Bonus programs were offered that were never confirmed in writing. Rather unethical. Consulting with the sales group prior to announcing new products or marketing strategies was rarely done.
