Pros

Great leadership team that are engaged and accessible. Small company--big brand. Big on diversity and inclusion (US HQ/Northbrook). Not a lot of layers. Friendly and inclusive environment. Flexible work schedule (varies by department). Small-family-vibe.

Cons

Some aspects of culture driven by parent company (Italy); still very reserved and conservative in some aspects. Very flat. Less opportunity for growth unless you move laterally. Promotion for people of color tend to be slower. Behind of technology and reporting tools.
