Pros

Looks good on resume to hopefully get what’s deserved from next job based on persception of being employed here.

Cons

Too much back stabbing and people riding the high horse when really they were no better. Brag about company wins and then when it’s time for employees reviews they have no monies for a decent cost of living wage increase.... what are we supposed to do with 1%,; bonuses go to those already Making 6 & 7’figure salaries with additional bonuses and do least amount of work unless you call rescheduling pointless Meetings all day!

Pros

Employee discount (50% off RL and CM)

Cons

Does not reimburse for tuition Little room for promotion if you’re not in line with top managers Departments are a mess and run counterproductively to each other; little collaboration among brands High-stress; disrespectful and hostile work environment You will easily become the victim of bias and abuse if your boss decides he/she does not like (without basis) Extreme cases of workplace bullying P&D Department favors the employer’s side of any issue

Pros

Incredibly inspiring design environment, working with true visionaries and co-creators of a very special world. Quite a few female mentors and leaders who fought to empower women of all ranks. Environment where you where allowed to dream and tell amazing design stories, perpetually inspiring each other and inspired by Ralph.

Cons

I was one of hundreds laid off during the filtering down of managerial top heavy layers. It was needed indeed, however senior decision makers did not understand the level of ''hands on day to day mentoring, managing and engagement of teams being undertaken at senior levels by those eliminated, individuals that motivated co workers and created the ''Family'' experience long acknowledged at the company. I look back at all those exited senior staffers, the highly driven talented individuals who helped cultivate, inspire and build the RL Empire thru the years- not resting on their laurels, but trying to innovate the brand thru the brand filter.
