Pros

This is a very casual work environment. You can have a beer during the day, usually supplied by the management team. Unlimited vacation days seem like a great idea , if you are one that actually takes advantage of it and many do.

Cons

Senior Management for Goods does not consist of merchants causing for constant changes in strategy. Not a sustainable business model. There is not a structure in place to support buying team so many tasks end up on the buyer's plate even though it shouldn't.
