Pros

Customer focused departmental goals, better than average benefit package. Remote work is normalized.

Cons

Carhartt has a culture of micromanagement and meetings. Departments struggle to work with one other through the mess of middle managers. The loudest and least self-sufficient voices in the room are rewarded with promotions. Project work is often brutal with hours and stress.

Pros

Decent benefits, good work life balance, great PTO packages

Cons

Hard attendance policy. I provided proof of a terrible thing that happened to my family and doctors notes, they still pulled me into the office and had me sign papers saying it wasn’t approved and threatened my job. This was very stressful. Also for as much change and learning as we are required to do switching from one program to another I believe they should raise Technician pay- order flow and Inventory control all deserve more. Also they had a meeting last year discussing that they justified their pay based on the surrounding market. Inventory control in larger cities make $2-5+ more per hour. It would be a life changing pay bump for many if it were updated. It is also disappointing how many offsite analysts there are, why not employ the locals?
