Pros

Burberry is the most interesting, forward thinking organisation that I have ever worked for. They value ideas and provide an environment that is corporate yet fluid and creative which is a hard balancing act. The management team that I work with are really inspiring and have helped me to realise my potential. I have had 3 promotions in the past 18 months which really reflects the pace of change here. Angela Ahrendts and Christopher Bailey are truly inspiring and very approachable. There is a clear vision and strategy which is very refreshing compared to other organisations that I have worked for. The brand is really gaining momentum even though we have had very challenging market conditions and this is a testament to the hard work, dedication and joy that people feel about working here.

Cons

Due to the rapid expansion of the business in the past 3 years and the changes to most ways of working in all departments, there is often little time to reflect on completed projects as we are always moving onto the next one. There needs to be a bit more of a celebration of success. If you don't like change, ambiguity and a seriously fast paced environment then I am afraid that Burberry is not for you!
