Pros
Ralph Lauren is full of tradition and legacy. I am a part of a team that change the way that designers and brand names merchandise their product within department stores. From the moment I joined the company, I was given the feeling that I belonged to something special. While the task can be challenging at times, I know that I will get support from Senior Management and somewhere in the immediate future I will be rewarded. Ralph Lauren Company also allows time for family and supplies its employees with lots of benefits and perks to make life fun and comfortable.
Kontras
I haven't experienced many downsides to working for Polo Ralph Lauren. However, I will say that the current economy has had an effect on business. This does present a sense of uncertaincy, Ralph Lauren is a brand that can be costly. With people being more cost-conscience, it has become a little harder to sell people on the lifestyle and luxury of our product. I department stores full of items that are marked down to the lowest price point, its a challenge to compete. Everyday in the news you see companies laying off workers, and I sometime fear that I could be one of those peolpe.
