Pros

The instant company recognition is nice - it's fun to tell people you work at LEGO. Employee discount is good. Benefits are slightly better than average, though pay is lower than average. The company does a good job of stating quarterly/annual goals.

Cons

LEGO brands itself externally and interally as a warm, friendly, family place, but there is definitely a cold, impersonal underside of this company. Trust is low, and favoritism abounds Denmark. Few to no women in senior leadership roles. Very bureaucratic company. LEGO is no stranger to layoffs.

Pros

Great company culture, which encourages employees that only the Best is Good Enough. LEGO offers a very competitive bonus structure which encourages you to preform. The employee discount is awesome. The ability to execute ideas in your own department is great, but you have to be careful of stepping on other department's toes.

Cons

Some of the employees have a bit of a superiority complex - don't put on airs that you know more than them or can do something better - it's the quickest way to be marginalized. Be prepared to work with humility and respect. Over communicate even to people who may not be even involved.

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.
