Pros

Discount, product knowledge, world recognized name, working with fun people and customers. Easily a conversation starter ("Uh, yeah, I work for Lego. Yeah, that Lego"). Fun building events. Works around your schedule fairly hassle free

Cons

Mystery shops. It seems like your performance as an employee (as well as a store) is judged simply on mystery shops. Bonuses and raises are issued out accordingly. It greats a lot of disillusionment. Very little hours throughout most of the year.

Pros

Great company, great product, exceptional brand. There are many things that LEGO is doing right and the new CEO is exceptionally smart. STL in the US is doing a good job and has made NA a growing market. They have worked hard to get back to "core LEGO" values and products and out of trying to create TV shows. The culture is generally fun and there is a great emphasis on marketing and brand building.

Cons

If you are not Danish you have little chance to make it to the top of the company. As others have stated it is a very cliquey group and if you are not one of the "cool kids" you also have little chance to move up.

Career advancement is heavily dependent on playing the "game" Lot's of cliques PAY! (in the contact center...get in here, work you butt off and move on) Personal/Vacation time (again, in the contact center)
