Pros

The people- everyone is genuinely kind and cares. There is a synergy unlike anything I've experienced. Everyone is extremely passionate about the company and its growth in recent years and into the future. The future is definitely bright for Carhartt.

Cons

It is an ideal place to work for someone in their 30s or 40s with kids. Very family-centric atmosphere. I feel a bit out of place being in my 20s, at least in my department. I wouldn't recommend for someone just starting their career as there is not a ton of opportunity for growth within. Gets a bit stale after a year.

Great Product, Great People, Poor Management

Pros

They have a great discount on a fabulous product. I've always loved Carhartt apparel and continue to. The people I work with are great people.

Cons

The pay isn't fair and promotions aren't fair. Don't expect to go up if you actually know what you're doing, as management seems to feel threatened by intelligent workers. So they promote the ones who really don't know what they're doing but will kiss up to the management. The communication is lacking, severely lacking. They seem lost as to what they're doing, which is understandable to some degree with all the changes they are undergoing, but it makes it scary to follow leadership.

Pros

working there you can give yourself a raise

Cons

the worst part is they hired locals for management positions, so you have people in positions that they shouldnt be in, also you have certain people that can do things others would get fired for.
