    Pros

    liability for shareholders is limited. it's easy to transfer ownership by selling shares to another party. shareholders (often family members) can be employed by the company. the company can trade anywhere in Australia. taxation rates can be more favourable.

    Cons

    the company can be expensive to establish, maintain and wind up. the reporting requirements can be complex. your financial affairs are public. if directors fail to meet their legal obligations, they may be held personally liable for the company's debts.

    Pros

    Zalando is really a very good and fair employer. Zalando grants its employees many benefits and discounts as well as advantages and cooperation programs with other companies. We work with flexible working hours and options like home office etc.

    Cons

    Unfortunately, there are currently no fixed team areas or fixed workstations in the offices. This would have to be permanently reintroduced.
