Pros

Benefits are great and so is the pay for the most part. People I work directly with are awesome. Can wear jeans to work.

Cons

No longer a family atmosphere. Very corporate and top heavy. High turnover due to employee dissatisfaction or termination. People walk on eggshells out of fear for their jobs. Big wigs care very little about employees or their opinions.

Pros

Iconic brands Capable coworkers Cool office, and good location Real opportunities to build tangible experience

Cons

Very cut throat / unforgiving culture Poor work / life balance Poor IT systems Unrealistic deadlines, “Ferrara Fast” High employee turnover Most work is churn at the corporate level, does not feed into proper decisions / strategy execution at the executive level Short term performance management, worse than Private Equity companies. Week to week performance reviews of the business, leading to substandard results in market and serious risk of long term underperformance
