Pros

Some great friends made, trusted to do your job well, good benefits. Flexi time, great work/life balance. Young, growing and fun.

Cons

The idea that there is no hierarchy and there’s an “open door policy” is pushed upon you but it’s simply not true. There’s a circle of people who have got where they are not based on talent, but who they know, and this trickles down and causes bad morale. Opportunities for progression are slim to none unless you’re well liked by the right people (favouritism at play massively when it comes to promotions). Atmosphere used to be great but has soured over time. Feels like a school environment. Good place to be if you’re young and to get a known brand on your CV, but that’s where it ends.

Pros

Gymshark really sticks to its core values. The people are awesome and great to work with. Excellent work-life balance.

Cons

As a UK-based company, working in the United States is tough sometimes. We often get information late from our UK partners. The company definitely needs to build out its US office more and add more vital job functions.
