The company is great for customers not so much for staff

Pros

The environment is friendly because Stride Rite is a children's shoe store

Cons

The managers do not take into consideration the schedules of their employees. I often had to take back shoes passed our refund policy because they want to make sure costumers are completely satisfied. It's nice they treat customers so well but the store lost so much money from people taking advantage of the system that the store was forced to close. Also I worked at Stride Rite for only a year and had 4 different managers.

People in the Boston office are great. Interesting, smart and motivated.

Pros

Staff in store is great, you know exactly what's expected of you. Pretty standard retail with decent hours. Willing to promote from within if you prove your worth. Good company culture and values. I've worked with a lot of great people during my time, some of them even growing into good friends.

Cons

I've worked across three different brands owned by Wolverine in the last 4 years. Each one more of a mess than the other. Corporate is VERY disorganized, upper-management in general isn't stellar. Pay isn't great compared to other retailers for your position, but you're also probably doing a lot less work than you would be somewhere else for your pay.
