Pros

A great team to work with out in the field. Many long term employees (10 Years Plus.) in the field and corporately. That says a lot about a company. Excellent footwear brand stable.

Cons

I can only speak to the Global Retail Group. Pay is average to below average for the market. Culture in the last few years has changed drastically. Team members have little value. An upper management leader said to me Managers and District Managers are expendable. It is all about what have you done for me lately? Bonus is impossible to make any longer with the current format. I believe that is y design.
