Pros
Incredibly talented, passionate and creative colleagues across the business. Fast-paced but friendly environment. Sample Sales are excellent. Summer Fridays is possibly the best work perk ever. Amazing brand and product that you feel proud to work for, and that looks good in the eyes of future employees.
Cons
Cronyism - unqualified people promoted based on who they know and their ability to shmooze, not what they know. Senior managers unwilling to resolve issues. Complete lack of defined roles, responsibilities and accountability. Few opportunities for progression. Pay - very hard to get your market rate and equally hard to get a pay rise once in. Senior Management make the decisions but it's the staff below that take the hit when they need to cut costs i.e. no bonuses, lower quality lunches.
