Pros

corporate social responsibility profile, many great people, friendly environment. Solid benefits, particularly for store partners.

Cons

After 5 years working at the corporate headquarters, I began to sense a weird vibe from my manager. I inquired about the situation and was told both verbally and in writing that nothing was wrong. Despite these reassurances, which in the meantime had led me to decline a different position within the company, I was laid off two weeks later.
