Pros

Everyday tasks are really interesting and never boring. The whole work environment is just amazing! A lot of possibilities to do sports! High international profile! 3500 employees from more than 50 nations!

Cons

Salary is not as high as in other parts of the economy (Automotive industry for example) but this is compensated by the benefits of the workplace and the discounts for all the adidas goods

Pros

I loved the work life balance and the people there. It was a great place to work because you were in the center of europe and had great opportunities to travel. Also working in south germany allows for a lot of vacation time therefor seeing the world is possible. also there is a great punch in system in that there is no punch in system if your work is done and you have your necessary hours for the week you are good to go. Playing sports at lunch is not bad either. Also if you are into sports this is the place to be as they are well positioned for the economic downslide. With the world cup coming up this is the pace to be!

Cons

There were not many downsides of working for adidas other then not understanding german to get around town. however if you like adventure then being dropped in the middle of germany not knowing a word of german is right up your ally. The culture is great but different there in that things are closed on sunday and nothing is 24 7u like we are used to in the USA. If you dont like the cld then there is not the place to work either because int he winter it can be very depressing. Also company sports can be a bit pricy at times however even though you have to pay for the gym and activities its still alot cheeper then on the outside.
