Pros

Met a few really great people, learned a lot in a short time - but the RB way

Cons

Managers are less than competent and can't lead their teams. Pay is low on the scale as RB tries to stay "lean." Company morale and culture is horrible and everyone for the most part is miserable in their roles and it shows. It may seem like butterflies and rainbows during your interview but that fades away quick! Not worth it. Total boys club too.

Pros

Salary is good, benefits are okay

Cons

There is a complete lack of cooperation between any of the business units. Systems are so antiquated and outdated, constantly crashing and data fidelity is nonexistent. A huge issue with attrition here because people are not valued at all. Tons of people leaving the company, turnover is so high because everyone hates their job and company

Pros

- Some supportive and helpful team members

Cons

- No work life balance. - Organization "implements" policies that are not kept or followed by managers. No application, implementation, or execution of departmental standards and procedures, allowing other team members and departments to dictate own work flow; with no resistance from management. - Extremely meeting heavy on a daily basis, amounting to unproductive usage of time. - Nonsensical continuous changes in team and department structure. - Under-qualified and ill-equipped management. - Unsupportive and culture killing managers who drive away employees. - Constant recycling of failed ideas and initiatives. - No onboarding or useful/applicable training whatsoever. - No ability to retain talent and constantly replacing employees losing valuable knowledge and know-how during transition. - Approximately 75% of office are international employees with no prior experience or exposure to the US market. - Global business destroys the local US business. What works across the globe does not always work here. - 125% turnover within brand within tenure. - No forum or any feedback platform on managers and upper management. - No resource or capacity management. - Extreme mental and emotional fatigue due to work culture and overall nature of organization. - Environment of finger pointing and throwing others under the bus. - Senior management who have no interest or care for the cultivation and growth of employees. - Verbally abusive managers. - Employees who are put in leadership positions who show no sign or capability to lead others. - Too many managers put in leadership positions who have never managed others before. - No visibility or transparency whatsoever from management. - Promotion of unqualified employees. Most promotions are given to the international employees who do not have additional schooling or any prior experience to the US market. - Does not promote individuality or flexibility. - No accountability from any sort of management. - Constant sense of confusion. - Highly unprofessional managers who make unneeded, rather harassing comments. - Managers who have no solutions to any issues. Your problem is not theirs. - Extreme micromanagement. - Lack of strategy and sustainable plans. - Unrealistic expectations are the norm. - Managers who care only to have the light shine on themselves, even if that means to undermine own employees.
