      Pros

      Plenty of opportunities for advancement in cross functional areas. Senior management always does what they say they will do. Speed is built into the culture and we could get things done. I worked here for many years and everyone of them was enjoyable. I wish I had not left. Really smart people everywhere.

      Cons

      No real negatives. For a company of this size to run as well as it does is amazing.

      Great Place to Learn

      Assistant brand manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible working hours along with a team full of friendly people who want you to learn as much as possible is the best part about it. Each Brand Manager also loves their brand personally which makes them put so much effort into their work.

      Cons

      The pay isn't the best considering the size of the company, also the fact you have to live 1 hour by public transport to obtain parking (luckily I can get parking)
