Pros

Excellent pay and benefits. Love my immediate cross functional team. Love the history of the company and it's ethical behaviors.

Cons

Development calendar is so crunched we are working on 3-4 seasons at a time with overlapping deadlines. No down time to be creative or get inspired. Difficult to design on the fly with no time for creativity. Bonuses are not what they used to be and Executive leaders still walk away with a hefty bonus at the end of each year. Not the workers. Leadership has no clue how unhappy most of the design team is. Decisions are never final which causes a lot of spin and rework. Company has become way to top-heavy with too many of layers of management and too many decision makers. Very inefficient to work this way.

Pros

Good gig as a student. Good team culture, flexible manager with schedules especially around exams, coworkers are nice.

Cons

Job requires you to be available both days of the weekend. Way too much of a push for credit cards towards people who've already expressed they don't want one.
