Pros

Over the past 5 years there have been no Pros.

Cons

Upper management lied about the company's financial situation for the past 5 + years. The recent CEO resigned and the bank brought in the past CEO and his cronies that actually tanked the company and he was let go for it over 2 years ago. That CEO also brought on his own cronies and over paid them. One was his mistress and then it was discovered that he was sleeping with multiple women in the company. This company continues to hire high paying individuals who don't know or do anything and don't invest in the employees who actually do the work and have the knowledge for the industry. Too much favoritism, too much sexual harassment.

Pros

Group of incredibly talented people that were both bright and hard working. The fashion industry itself is very fast moving and so there are always new and interesting projects to work on.

Cons

The CEO and COO appeared much more interested in "gaming the system" to feather their own nests, rather than focusing on the business issues that needed to be addressed. Unfortunately this lead to a narcissistic management style that became the foundation of a series of catastrophic business decisions.

Pros

The watch industry has undergone significant changes over the last few years and Geneva has experienced its ups and downs as any company does. Current ownership took over at the end of 2015 and assumed hands on management for day to day operations in July 2016 from the transitional management team. New ownership has a strong presence in Far East manufacturing, great brand and product acumen. The company is at the beginning of a transformation under new leadership that is fully vested with their own funding and a personal stake in its profitable performance. New changes will occur over the next 6-12 months that will leave the old Geneva of the last 2 years dramatically renovated.

Cons

As with transformational change there are lot of blanks that need to be filled. The pace is slow but deliberate. The company is undergoing a global integration with parent company and the roles/positions not fully determined yet lead to anxiety.
