Pros

-Great general management experience -many 1st/2nd position brands to work on -potential for international experience -pays better than most other Minneapolis companies

Cons

-Work life balance not what it used to be -Very large Marketing backlog - 4-5 years plus before you are promoted to MM and the first MM jobs often don't have direct reports, PNL management. -Cliquey - you either fit the culture or you don't
