Pros

They promoted me across departments and out of retail

Cons

- I was underpaid compared to my direct peers by 25% - During my four years at HQ, there were three separate sets of layoffs - Career advancement is given incredible lip service, but you have to chase it all yourself - Management has no vision or consistency
