Pros

You work with really awesome associates. Nike owns Converse so you get a really good employee discount at both establishments, as well as "free" staff dress.

Cons

Management didn't know how to manage. You were constantly told not to be friendly with co workers inside or outside of work, so you had to hide being friends. There was no mobility within the company, they were constantly hiring from the outside for all positions. Also, corporate is so out of touch with their product and demographic its no wonder the brand had to close a lot of stores, leaving us unemployed.

Pros

Opportunities for growth and great benefits.

Cons

Management is so incredibly catty. There's drama every month, not just between associates, but mostly with management and leadership. The store manager is also good friends with the district manager so if you had any HR violations with her it wouldn't be taken seriously and they would just laugh about it in their video calls. So many HR violations have been made here its not even funny. I recommend the company as well as Nike who owns them but do yourself a favor and stay away from the Philadelphia Premium Outlets location.
