More layers of management than imaginable

Pros

Pretty much the only positive I can say about Wolverine is that the mid level management spends so much of their time in meetings with each other that they leave the lower level employees alone to do what they want.

Cons

See my "pros" statement. You would think based on how many levels of management this company has that it was ten times the size it actually is.

Pros

Very large company that does a great job of promoting from within. Tremendous opportunity for those that are patient (5 year minimum). Some very sharp group and brand managers. Good place to learn. Grand Rapids (20 minutes away) is an up-and-coming town - safe, family friendly, great schools, etc.

Cons

Terrible pay unless you are a director or above. Limits on how large of a pay increase an individual can receive when promoted or changing jobs. Office environment is horrible, very boring. Plan to work (in office) from before 8 to 6 at least, unless you are part of "the club" and then you come and g as you please. Sr. executive team is not approachable and on the attack in meetings. A lot of dinosaurs that resist change. Very very political.
