Pros

Many opportunities for personal growth and implementation of ideas given the small size of the organization in the US. Upper management gave personalized feedback and criticism that was constructive and beneficial. Generous commission and bonus structure. Co workers were reliable and the team functioned like a family. If you had a concern or comment, the company always listened. The hours were better than most other retail stores.

Cons

No cons to list. It is exactly what you might expect working in a retail environment.

Pros

This company has a great potential for growth in the US market. It offers a strong foundation and has the necessary resources to expand its operations successfully.

Cons

One of the main challenges faced by the company is the overly dysfunctional micromanagement approach from the head office in Denmark. It seems that the teams in Copenhagen work in isolated silos, believing that the way things work in Denmark is applicable everywhere. There is a lack of acknowledgment that Denmark is not the center of the world, which hinders effective collaboration and adaptation to local markets.
