Pros

I think the Gap is a great place to work if you just graduated college but if you are an ambitious go getter kind of person that wants to make an impact I don't think the culture or is the organizational design set-up to enable success. Its a shame because the company has so much potential.

Cons

HR is very political. They say they want to change and look like they are doing a lot of things but they are basically recycling over and over again and not much changes. There are a few senior women that are all friends, they are snobby, cliques but to your face they are super friendly and seem motivated but will back stab you for their own gains. If you want to join an innovative people operations function I highly recommend working elsewhere. It's a company that is too big to fail and too big to change.
