Generally good, but weak CEO who doesn't get it.

Pros

Probably depends on which group, but the Outdoor Group culture is pretty good. Lots of great people who are passionate about the brands and the outdoor lifestyle. A ton of potential with more investment.

Cons

Very conservative both personally and from a business perspective. Purely numbers driven with very little commitment to brand building and long-term growth strategy. "Double digit growth" is not a strategy, even if the Street likes it. Structure makes it very risk-averse with little willingness to invest in marketing and brand development. A footwear manufacturing company trying to play in a brand world.

Strong company, but senior management is out of touch with mid to lower level managers.

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Many excellent, knowledgable people working for the company. Several strong Brands and well capitalized company. Pay and benefits are equitable.

Cons

Longer term employees are often overlooked for promotions and under-utilized given their abilities and qualifications. The company politics typically determines promotions rather than talent and hard work of individuals. Company creates change for the sake of "changing", but misses opportunities for meaningful change. Several business units lack "vision" for the future.
