Pluspunten
Benefits of WM/CS Role: -work with amazingly talented and smart people who know the ins and outs of retail strategy -manage a business with the ability to take risks (b/c you're backed by the largest company in the world -literally get to change how people shop -be part of a team who is similar in age and life experience as you -close to San Francisco -free transportation to work--super huge perk! -AWESOME work life balance -free gym and classes
Minpunten
Downsides to WM/ CS role: -it's a new program so there is uncertainty with career trajectory -culture dynamics are somewhat awkward between WM and acquisition companies -my team is kind and fun and friendly but it's like any other job where it really depends on the type of people you're with, which manager you're placed with, and the team dynamic (for me this is a huge plus but I can see if I didn't have the team I did, it could be a con) -no free food :( -increased pay year over year is not structured to incentive you to stay (i.e. someone who has 1 more year of experience coming into WM will have a larger base pay than someone who gained a year of experience at WM) -Saturation in positions above CS without promotions--no where for CSs to move long-term
