Pros

Ability to work for a global company that values their employees. It is a fun and relaxed atmosphere but at the same time is ever changing and proposes new challenges everyday.

Cons

The inability to keep things simple!! I know that we have a very complex set up but it is coupled with very detailed and at times senseless templates or programs that are required.

LEGO vs LEGO Brand Retail

Recommend

Pros

LEGO Group is focused on quality, imagination, and creativity, and that is evident in every set that is manufactured. They have presented employees with some pretty cool sets as gifts, which, as a LEGO fan, is always a joy to receive.

Cons

I work for LEGO Brand Retail North America, which is still trying to find its way as a retailer. It is slow to innovate, few people in the home office have worked in a retail setting, and feedback from the field is typically not put into action. This makes for some headaches and frustrations that affect the customer experience but are left for field staff to repair. Wages are on the lower end of the spectrum in a retail setting, though, as a pro, the bonus potential for all employees can be gratifying. It is difficult to recommend LEGO Brand Retail as an employer with few opportunities to move into home office positions or for those that enjoy being in collaborative environments.

Pros

-Usually a positive, family-friendly atmosphere while working -It was easy to request off, though this varies from store to store -50% off discount on all items was nice -Some great co-workers, very passionate about LEGO and usually creative

Cons

-2 mystery shops a month gets annoying, too much pressure on them and NPS surveys -It's a small store, most customers don't want to be bothered yet we had to talk to every last person as if our store was the size of a Home Depot -Communication from corporate was bad. We were just as confused as customers were when it came to the status of a product, whether it was retired or not, whether we would be receiving more or not -Instructions for in-store display were very poorly worded and confusing -Corporate communication overall just seemed sloppy and unorganized -Not really any pay raises unless you get promoted to supervisor or manager
