Pros

Nice freebies, pretty office, early finish on fridays

Cons

- Many accidental managers, who seem to get promoted because they have worked there for a long time, not because they are actually competent to work as a manager. - People work there for really long so there is literally no opportunity for growth until they leave. - People who have been in the company for a long time are rigid in the way they think and work, many people have been there their entire working career (20+ years)

Pros

Great culture and truly amazing coworkers. Strong company history of success with iconic brands.

Cons

The company is going through a super tough season. Lots of jobs being moved offshore and it feels like nonstop restructuring / job loss. Job security feels very tenuous and morale is low.
