Pros

- plenty of opportunities laterally to gain experience - health benefits

Cons

- Rampant nepotism as it relates to promotions & “moving up the ladder” - bad/inappropriate behavior from leaders/employees is ignored & brushed under the rug (demeaning comments, yelling, borderline bullying) - leadership team has absolutely no self awareness or even the baseline of what it takes to be effective leaders - lack of integrity with career development opportunities— your merit means nothing if you’re not liked by all of leadership - Hypocrisy, bias & lack of logic in key decision making - “Growth opportunities” are a mask for saving a buck to not backfill critical roles and dump onto existing employees who are rockstars, without any reward, leading to burnout - Preach about wanting “disturbers to shake things up & think different” but reprimand them when they do - leadership team promoting wellness & career development with no authentic-ness behind it, just to check a box - High turnover rates, especially with POC is ignored

Pros

Working with brands you grew up with is really exciting! The people I have met have all been amazing as well!

Cons

Everyone I have talked to are overworked and feel underpaid and despite the amount of work they do, there is no recognition or appreciation. Upper management is a mess and UL is constantly restructuring, often going from new BACK to the old structure while simultaneously letting people go leaving more people overworked. While most people are amazing, there are a few micromanagers where expectations are unknown. In addition, the lack of communication is awful. Often, I hear about certain cuts through the vine rather than directly from the people involved
