Pros

Fantastic coworkers. I can't say that enough - just wonderful people, a wonderful community, all really dynamic and committed. I can't say enough how much I enjoyed working with other departments, especially in Rockford. Great compensation, great benefits, great advancement opportunity if you can survive the layoffs.

Cons

The cultural disconnect between employees in Rockford and Waltham makes those relationships very strained. Really difficult to bridge that gap effectively, and this starts from leadership. A very us vs them relationship that hindered effective collaboration over and over. Most of all, the layoffs that just keep on coming made this a company I could no longer support, trust or continue working for. Watching beloved coworkers that were objectively good at their jobs get fired because of personal grudges and vendettas was sad and makes everyone feel exposed. Any small thing seems like it can place you on the chopping block at this company. It bums me out that a successful company with a good culture and great opportunities can also be a place I would not in good faith recommend to a friend.

Pros

Generous discounts off all brands

Cons

The culture within the brand is disappointing. There is favoritism, the wrong people are getting promoted and skipping levels based on their managers preference, and the people who have the capabilities and knowledge are looked over in favor of the millenials

Pros

Nice coworkers, great campus, love the shoes.

Cons

100 year old company where the culture is struggling to keep up with the workers in the market. Poorly led management, low pay, lots of hours, no focus on learning and professional development. Expectations are unrealistic for the “lean” teams that are available. Career advancement is based on years at the company not on skill set. Highly political.
