Pros

Levi's offers a nice perk like half days off on Friday. They also have a good matching of 401k although I forget the percentage they match up to. Work load at Levi is not so bad for a financial analyst. I was working around 38 hours a week. Probably 45 hours a week during a busy schedule.

Cons

The location of the position is bad. It is way up by Coit Tower. It is about one mile north of Market St. Not too far away from Fisherman's Wharf. A lot of the internal systems Levi uses is outdated and antiquated. I believe they had an SAP integration. Some of these internal software were 20 years old. I know the phones seemed as if they were from the 80's!

Pros

they treat employees well from a benefits perspective

Cons

senior management team not competent. bad decisions are continually made, and the same mistakes made over and over again. there is no accountability at senior levels. there is no drive to perform. there are too many people who aren't good at what they do--at all levels of the company. incompetence is promoted. sweeping changes in leadership needed.

Pros

It is a more relaxed working environment than some I have worked at in the past. The company is committed to making the community and world a better place; good company values. Levi's is good to its employees; it's not uncommon to find employees with 20+ years tenure. Overall, there is a very good work/life balance and flexibility. The company has 'plaza hours,' which allows employees to work half-days on Fridays.

Cons

Improvement in process and infrastructure are often slow to change. You find the 'we've always done it that way' mentality used frequently, especially among those who have been there for a long time.
