Pros

Growth opportunity, compettitive environment, fun place to be. The company is constanly examining ways to be better at everything we do - especially compete. It is a lot of fun to be part of the winning team. The company's senior leadership is passionate about being number one. They are not afraid to make the necessary tough decisions to gain a competetive advantage.

Cons

Despite strong performances, pats on the back are often hard to come by... Incentive compensation is nice, but it also nice to hear you are doing a good job during the year. The company has addressed significant communication shortfalls recently, but not all managers have followed suit. Information is typically easy to get now.

Pros

Employee Discount Opportunity to provide customers an experience in which they can be confident in buying a new shoe for style, function and support-related reasons. Great selling tools, devices and display fixtures to work with

Cons

This is not really a con since I believe it is an important part of the job. Newer and current workers may need to keep up up to date and do research on products in order to be able to help customers effectively and efficiently.
