Pros

The company does provide International opportunities for those people who are mobile and open to various parts of the world; that's a big plus for some. It also has a recognizable brand, which means something to others. And no one really works too much for long periods of time, so there is work-life balance.

Cons

The company has a very Political culture that is driven by people who just want to protect their turf. And maybe because it is a German company (maybe not) it is really bad at making fast decisions because Leaders have little managerial courage. It's also a silo'd organization, yet HQ in Germany thinks they know everything (they don't). And, from a people perspective, the HR organization is a joke.

Pros

easy work. easy to get away with doing nothing.decent pay for retail associate.flexible schedule

Cons

Management is unaware of what’s going on. customers are mostly tourist so lots of repeating basic information. store does not take care of their employees. lack of motivation and leadership. No training so you’ll spend the first few months figuring out how to do your job.
