Vantaggi

- 4th Largest Retailer in the World = lots of opportunities to fail (but A LOT of wasted money) - Great Benefits and starting PTO balances - Good pay for lower level employees (associates and supervisors)

Svantaggi

- International brand and Directors are still getting used to the US way. - Most of the departments in HQ and the Regions are run by underperforming District Managers who basically got told they can not run stores, so instead of rightfully firing them, Directors placed them in lateral positions outside of the Sales Department......UM HELLO??? - 75% of the "good" District Managers don't have the slightest clue about retail, let alone how to run a store. - All of the performing Store Managers (which their aren't many) get no recognition, get paid the exact same as poor performing managers, who are sitting in training centers doing nothing, and get stuck in the "performance punishment" trap. There is not a single US retailer I can think of that doesn't have a performance based compensation program for their Retail Management, until now. - Not competitive Store Manager pay. Oh ya did I mention NO bonus structure either??? - Payroll and HR Departments are horrible. Just forget about doing the right thing for your emoloyess. ie. Pay issues, NO recognition program throughout the entire company, let alone for the stores to utilize; no structure what so ever - Company has great values on paper, but does NOT follow a single one. (Respect, Recognition, Responsibility = TRUST) - LOTS of IT and Real Estate fails.

Vantaggi

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Svantaggi

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
