A mess

Pros

Half day fridays, employee discount

Cons

Extremely political across the board. Career growth is limited to a few departments. Company is obsessed with image. Behind earnings reports are overworked employees, promotions delayed for years, hiring freezes, temps, and layoffs. Other reviewers put it best - shiny on the outside but a mess on the inside.

Really Strange Place - Relies Too Much on TEMP Work

Pros

Seems to be a good place for support teams like HR, IT, etc. Long Christmas Holiday Team building exercises but feel forced

Cons

Constantly changing goalposts No clear communication of wants from management/executive level, making it impossible to complete projects or get anything done Company abuses TEMP workers - DO NOT WORK HERE ON A CONTRACT! I cannot stress this enough - Even if you are told you will be offered full-time, the company will string you along for years without full-time offer/ benefits. Marketing team is extremely competitive and is very clichy. Full of a lot of sad young people who are thinking of changing careers completely because of negative experience. A lot of switching/turnover/firings/layoffs happening.

Pros

Nothing new half day Fridays, Christmas week off toy discounts.

Cons

Ms. Thomas is time for you to move on. The company has outgrown your leadership abilities. Finance and IT are Incapable to support Mr. Goldner’s vision and strategy as you lack the big picture mentality. Micromanagement and your personal involvement on matters your highly paid direct reports should be able to address. Your need to be involved in everything brings the teams to the point of paralysis. Behave like the CFO of a large public company not a mom and pop operation Finance manager. The processes at both departments are mostly entirely manual. Very long processing and cycle times. Internal controls bypass is how go to market time is minimized. Impossible to move up if you are not personal friends of Ms Thomas or other members of leadership. Cost cutting is such that risk of non compliance lurks around every corner. This only seems to affect support functions while Marketing and other groups continue to blow out money on very large global networking events. Very costly as there is no thought given to number of attendees and location they travel from. Same goes for Hong Kong toy fair attendance. Nuremberg toy fair, etc. scrutinize their spending as much as Finance and IT.
