Business Outlook
Pros
Laid back and sports centered environment, where work-life balance is given emphasis. People are generally willing to help, and there is a collaborative environment among different teams. The brand is at the center of everything, and there are a lot of discounts/sales to encourage employees to live, eat and breathe adidas.
Cons
Complex and oftentimes bureaucratic organizations, processes and systems. Methodology is always applied, so this translates to slower output. What might typically be a 3-month project in other larger organizations, would take a minimum of 6 months in adidas. Most complex IT landscape I have ever seen!
