Pros

Teams within the individual brands are fantastic. Amazing people who actually care about the brands they work for and want them to do well

Cons

- Wolverine is a brand killer. All about short term thinking and not long term investment - Everyone is overworked/underpaid - Some senior management will throw you under the bus to make themselves look better - Opportunities for growth within the company are slim

Wouldn’t recommend my worst enemy work here

Pros

Loved my coworkers, and there’s a nice discount on shoes.

Cons

Claim to be sensitive to work life balance, but actually work you to death with no care or sensitivity to burn out because they want to run lean. Many meetings about planning, with no actionable plans being made until the last minute.

Proceed with caution...

Pros

Most of the mid to lower level employees are wonderful, dedicated and hard-working. Some decent perks, good discounts and opportunities to have fun.

Cons

Senior leadership has a high turnover rate. Employees are expected to work miracles with little to no resources and a strategy that seems to change from year to year. "Reorganizations" happen often, and leaders are promoted then terminated or demoted quickly. Little to no leadership inspiration from the top, the CEO is rated low for a reason. Good people don't seem to last too long and jerks often get rewarded.
