Pros

Some great people in my team

Cons

You are thrown away in an instant without remorse or a second of thought. You cannot and should not trust a word the CEO Ralph Kotterer says. This has been proven time and time again.

Pros

Great team, and pleasant atmosphere. You have a chance of developing your skills, but you have to do a lot on your own, and be self-taught. Don't expect much mentoring unless you are really lucky. Cool discount, and a great campus (unless you work in IT).

Cons

Career growth is limited and adidas prefers hiring external people. Trusts agencies more than its own people which I find ridiculous. Very political and often not transparent on how things happen. HR is practically there to serve the top, and not the common folk. You will rarely see any good initiatives coming from them.
