Pros

New balance is a great company to work at. Management truly cares about development and opportunities within your field. They are approachable and are willing to help anyway they can. New Balance core values are present throughout every level. The company feels like you are part of one big family.

Cons

It's a difficult company to leave after one has worked there for a few years. Employee retention is definitely high and makes it difficult to move up the corporate chain if one is not willing to move to HQ.
