Pros

Strong brand name Relaxed and casual environment Performance driven- you know what is expected from you and so you can work towards your own targets. International Team

Cons

Not all departments are as forward thinking as others The company is so big and complex and has so many different legal entities that it often feels like separate companies within the same company.

Pros

Adidas is the number one sports apperal brand in the world. However, we were second to Nike in the USA. It was great to be apart of meetings and corperate game plans to how we as a staff could outwork Nike and become the number one reatiler in the United States.

Cons

Our home office was Portland, OR and our regional office meeting place was Dallas, TX. I was based out of Washington, DC so it's easy to see that we traveled all of the US for meetings,etc. I felt that we could cut costs by using "go-to-meeting" a little more, and get together as a group face to face maybe twice a year, not every other month. I felt it took away from my Area by traveling so much.
