Pros

Successful Global Retailer due to scrappy leadership and teams. Plenty of opportunity to make a difference.

Cons

Company struggling with size and scale. BIG global company formed by acquisition - but integration is a big challenge. Process is not a strength, manual, scrappy workarounds make it "work". Lots of tech debt. WAY behind on data management. Senior Management finds it hard to spend for technology - and when they do, they focus on external, have not built the internal technical structure and understanding needed. Management can be very scattered, knee jerk reactions. Need a longer term view. New CEO does have a more focused style which will help.

Pros

Coworkers are typically thoughtful and genuinely care about each other

Cons

At times, it feels like no one gets fired. And the lowest performers continue to suck and nothing happens to them. You just continue to get more and more work. The pay is egregious and the benefits are laughable. They just got maternity leave in the US.
