Category Manager - Anonymous employee Mountain Designs Employee Review

Free gear and good colleagues

Poor upper management and lack of support

The employees that worked there - so many talented and passionate people have worked in this company over time. The outcome could have been very different had these people been trusted to complete the tasks they were employed to do. Very inspiring brand with a wonderful heritage, disappointing to see it go to waste.

Entirely the upper management, mainly the CEO. The CEO is a complex and emotional person who is incompetent and unfit to do the role. The amount of head scratching moments when she would contradict herself was inconceivable... not to mention the amount of silly decisions and directions that was made based on little to no logic... and if you tried to professionally dispute and offer feasible alternatives then you were just bullied into submission. The mental health implications of working there have been big for a lot of people.
