Vantaggi
- Shoes are everywhere! It is cool to see the creative process and see models that are being tested and some that won't be released for a year or two. - Great work life balance; there is a small gym in the 5 floor office, which is a renovated historical factory mill; very cool office setting, yes it is mostly cubicals (low walls which is nice), but with a loft/urban feel inside it provides a great environment to work in. Always music echoing from random peoples cubes; from an outsider it might look like little work gets done, but that is hardly the case - Casual dress attire; a t-shirt, jeans, and chucks or jp's is most of the office attire; The only people wearing suits were people visiting - Good benefits; great discounts at Converse, Cole Haan, Nike, Hurley; occasional free products and shoes - Summer hours A business that is performing exceptionally well right now b/c trends fall in line with the brand, but hard to say 2-3 years down the road if that will be the case. With this industry, things happen FAST!
Svantaggi
They're awesome! haha, get it, this field is titled "Cons", which is a common name for Converse shoes ;-) I'm an idiot ... - NORTH ANDOVER; by no means a glamorous town; its a solid 40 minute commute from Boston if you are young and wanting to live in the city (where there is actually stuff to do) - Run very lean - not that it is hard to progress your career, it will just take a very long time to do so - Food options for lunch - a few decent restaurants nearby, a so-so caf with a neighboring company - You have to be brand loyal (obviously); so, if you were to say have a wardrobe of competitor clothing, say goodbye to it Monday-Friday!
