Pros

Great pay in comparison to competitors, a great case study for business optimisation and learning how a leading discounter wins in the market. Great valuable experience if you're willing to put in the hours and ask for more responsibility.

Cons

Demanding, overworked, lacks room for creativity, dinosaur management, not so welcoming culture for graduates.

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
