Pros

Work-life balance, benefits, competitive salary, willingness to bring in team members from non-footwear/apparel backgrounds. I couldn't be happier in my decision to leave the advertising agency life to come to New Balance.

Cons

There is a significant lack of process which is hampering our team at the moment, but is currently being addressed by management

Pros

When someone from Boston is here. I feel when their here in St Louis, they tell management to ship up or ship out. I feel so much better and I smile all day.

Cons

HR is fake and so are the brothers. We were told to write a review since their ratings were getting very low. As I stated, people are leaving for a good reason. Most are stuck here due to laziness. Most people depend on companies like this, instead of taking charge and leaving. Yet others get a backbone and leave. This company is one of the worst. Don't be fooled by the smiles and fakery.
