Pros

200 dollars in free clothes that is given quarterly. Gives you chances to learn how to run a business. The benefits are great for retail.

Cons

No real structure, the company doesn't really seem to know where it wants to go. They deleted the assistant manager position which really takes away a lot of the chance of advancement with the company. The pay was horrible. Didn't get much reconition from senior management for doing a great job; felt like the DM was treating me as an idiot who couldn't do their job. Had to do a lot of activities that is way more than what the job description is and got not reconition in return.

Pros

competitive pay, flexible hours, good supervisors, excellent product discounts. Adidas provided me with an opportunity to work over the summer with flexible hours and were very accepting of conflicts.

Cons

At times the working conditions could be very warm, and the supervisors seemed to possess varying levels of aptitude. Could have used more engaging and interesting projects.

Pros

Good Work life Balance. Brand to be proud of. While it is highly structured with many policies and procedures, the international staff bring balance to the day-to-day activities. Lots of possibilities for international mobility.

Cons

Like most large corporations, there is the typical hierarchal issues and office politics. The heavy structure of the apparel industry can make it difficult to push projects through to completion.
