Pros

Smaller company. New England versus PNW. I'd say less political, but it is actually more political IMO than Nike.

Cons

Employees are discouraged with senior leadership. Consistent talk about the brand but the brand positioning is weak and confusing. Entire marketing team is off track. Senior management is invisible at best, backwards. No one seems to want/care to make an effort to make things better before the big move.

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.
