Pros

Very capable and intelligent executive team, most of whom came from McKenzie Consulting. I really enjoyed their summer hours. If you choose so in the summer, you can come in earlier and work 7 to 5 Mon - Thurs and then leave at 11 on Fridays.

Cons

Upward mobility is quite dependent on someone else leaving. Many employees have been with Genesco for 15+ years so it's difficult to get and move upward.

Pros

Work-life balance is genuinely good. Flexible and not a grind culture.

Cons

Middle management is the weak point. Several managers are promoted developers with no real management training or experience, they know the tech but not how to lead people. Project structure is disorganized and compensation lags behind market rate.
