Pros

Beautiful building, nice discount, CEO is committed to diversity (at least they say they are)

Cons

Don’t work here if you’re in a support function (HR, IT, Accounting, etc.) you will get no support, you’re expected to do the job of 3 people, raises are non-existent to negligible. Exceptionally political organization, if you don’t know people and have relationships, you have no hope of getting anything done. On the flip, it’s difficult to get to know anyone because everyone is so busy they’ve become mean. I heard this place used to be nice, it’s not anymore. IT is a disaster, the have not invested in critical systems and the CIO/COO is so siloed and does not partner with other organizations. No one cares about calendars, it’s impossible to take a day off or an afternoon off

Not Worth It

Pros

You get a good discount.

Cons

I strongly recommend against working here if you are in a support or operations role (HR, supply chain, distribution centers, IT, etc.). These areas are underfunded, unappreciated, and poorly led. Leaders in support functions seem disconnected from the work their teams do and lack the ability to advocate effectively for them at executive and board meetings. As a result, these teams are left without the recognition or resources they need. If you are interested in working with the brands, you might have a better experience—provided you know someone on the inside. Qualifications alone won’t get you in, especially with The Collective (their internal agency). Connections are crucial, and you’ll likely need to be on a first-name basis with the VP to secure a spot. Lastly, don’t be misled by talk of ‘promoting from within.’ They’ll post roles externally, only to later promote internally when they realize they can pay existing employees below market rates and frame it as ‘career growth.’ It’s disappointing to see people who have dedicated their careers here without fully realizing that Wolverine is paying them below market.
