Disaster

Pros

- competitive salary - discount...which starts getting old and unattractive for poor quality product - brand name on your resume

Cons

This place is a pure disaster. - poor management level decisions - lack of speed - subjective decisions/highest paid opinion - legacy technology - no understanding of core customer base. Only pretentious focus on top dogs - work environment that forces everyone to be an a-hole - almost no opportunity for relevant training to perform better - the worst HR crew in the business...recruiting, benefits, org partnerships, mobilization - LIES to employees about decisions/direction. Everything is about appearances There is a direct correlation between the work culture/environment to company performance

Pros

The benefits and shopping discount are good and competitive. I have many many talented people who are not utilized properly for their skills.

Cons

The salaries for designers are not competitive and the longer you are there, the less you make. They rather pay more for people outside the company rather than promote the employees they have.

Pros

Very competitive salaries within the Digital team. Most people are relatively friendly and smart. Looks fantastic on a resume. Inspiring brand heritage. Great 50% discount at RL and CM - with many larger discount opportunities through the year. Early access to all of the sample sales. Easy to fly under the radar, if that’s what you’re looking for. Nice emphasis on volunteering and giving back.

Cons

The Digital team is a mess. Well over 150 people have left within the past 18 months. It is far too VP heavy, and none of them can get along amongst themselves, which translates into a hostile and competitive atmosphere - think 60% Cruel Intentions, 40% Mean Girls. Just about everyone within digital is miserable, even those who have started within the past 6 months. New hires start out as nice, optimistic and easy-going, but are transformed into defensive, miserable creatures within a matter of months. Culture throughout RL favors pretty boys. Zero respect for ecommerce and digital throughout the larger RL organization.
