Poor Communication

Pros

The CEO is awesome! And the customers were a blast to work with.

Cons

*Horrible communication skills within the store management. *No room for promotion or advancement within the brand. * No compensation for excellent performance. *Jump quick to judgments and accusations rather than have discussions about any concerns. *High expectations for “standards” that they never explain or give clarity to, but will quickly call you out on at a moments notice.

Pros

Hands down, Outerknown is the worst company with which to do business. Accounts receivable is corrupt and sales reps are terrible with communication. Chaos within the inner circle of Outerknown with many people fired, only to be replaced by other corrupt employees. Clothes poorly made. Their chinos blow out in the crotch, their blanket shirts arrive with cracked or missing buttons, A company that wants to look shiny on the outside but gray on the inside.

Cons

Everything about the company is bad
