Cons

-The intercom in the office is annoying - too many people in command who don't do the work -To many people with horrible attitudes - MICRO Managing is a big problem - People who work long hours, creative work, and that have passion are overlooked by people with big egos and people who can only talk and not produce great work - too many office politics ruin great creative people with talent - higher management is just bad in general - the company has gotten very reductive with design and less creative perspectives for new ideas -style guide need more fresh looks - Manhattan NY management is awful... the flagship store is the worst store

Pros

There are a lot of talented, hardworking people at this company, which makes recent leadership decisions even more frustrating.

Cons

Communication around major organizational changes has been vague and inconsistent, leaving employees with significant uncertainty and little confidence in the direction of the business. Morale has declined considerably. Many employees feel that years of experience, performance, and institutional knowledge are being undervalued in favor of rigid policies and top-down decision making.
