Business Outlook
Pros
- 1/2 day Fridays are awesome (though it often becomes time you use to catch up) - Discount toys are fun - Philanthropy opportunities - Employee picnics (except the ones that were exclusive) - Education/development courses are a nice break and really helpful - Fun brands - They pay well
Cons
- Incompetent/unqualified management - Dismissive HR - Uninspiring - Sexism is rampant - If you aren't in Toy, you will get little support - Inability to leverage IPs strategically - No work/life balance - Meetings upon meetings - Decision/lack of decision by committee paralyzes progress - Innovation/new ideas are "encouraged" and then discarded - Far behind competitors in tech and digital
