Pros

Amazing work life balance as there is barely work as Senior leadership is busy in playing what they call as value streams which are ever changing. Colleagues and managers are great.

Cons

Everything about this place is piece of an experiment which seems to be forever long process. H&M had gone through 2 major re-orgs in last 2 years, and senior leader are the one who are calling for shots which impact the people who are working day-in day-out slogging there hours. I feel being part of this org was the biggest mistake of my career, people are getting demoted instead of promoted yes you read that right, if you're aspiring young enthusiasts my advise is to stay away from this immature organisation which they so call as #theplacetobe

Pros

Job had potential growth when company was in a healthy state, ability to move into different career paths internally, pay is competitive, discounts on clothes a plus

Cons

Company lacks ability to adapt and evolve with market which has resulted in poor sales, mass layoffs, constant restructuring of positions, putting people in positions with limitedexperience and setting them up for failure consistently, poor leadership, lack of accountability and ownership, bonus structure poor, work life balance non existent if you are in an operations role.
