Pros

Growing company creates good opportunites for advancement, beautiful new corporate office with amazing gym and cafeteria, passionate corporate employees who work hard to win, good college-recruiting and merchandise training program.

Cons

Male-dominated executive team uses too many lame sports analogies, leadership seems scared of Ed Stack, politics are worse than other retail offices, employees are often not given straightforward performance critiques when there are issues, promotions handed out unevenly, inventory management is poor.
