Pros

You couldn’t pay me $1,000,000 to work here again. The people suck, the shoes suck (they literally rip off every designer and resell the style but with the cheapest materials they can find), and Steve Madden as a person sucks. Literally work anywhere else.

Cons

Everything’s a con when you’re working for a con man

Pros

The overall company energy was fun and welcoming.

Cons

This company is catty, cliquey and has an overall high school like drama to it. If you're not in the in crowd, you will be overlooked. The managers play favorites and your chances of moving up based on skill and expertise are slim to none.

Pros

Prior to covid when there were more employees, the team I was on was incredibly nice. discounted food every week lots of free shoes

Cons

Racist, sexist, underpaid employees, you only get promotions if you are related to Steve. Hr doesn't absolutely nothing since Steve runs that place to the ground Old school thinking, no remote options, it's a dinosaur
