Pros

Relaxed corporate culture make this a relatively stress-free work environment compared to other large corporations. The management is generally competent, friendly, and eager to provide feedback on work performance.

Cons

IT department stuck using practices and procedures that were great for 15 years ago, management that does not want to push for change. Application developers are largely unaware of any practices that have surfaced within the last 10 years or so and do very little to attempt to educate themselves otherwise. Certain IT Directors see themselves as "above" other groups and will often refer to themselves as "dollars" and other workers as "dimes", which does not entirely adhere to Sterling's "One Team, One Mission" statement.

Pros

Great place to learn how to become a better jeweler and grow your skills, if you are in an environment that takes full advantage of what the company provides. The benefits are also extremely generous with PTO and depending on the work environment, your schedule can be very flexible. Also being a jeweler means you are in a separate department from the sales side of the company and they have no authority over you, and your job as a jeweler isn't impacted by the sales side, you could be working inside a Jared, but it doesn't matter if the salesperson couldn't make the sale, and the money charged between the Service Center and the store is all just a number for tracking margin, so it's really nice being a jeweler that doesn't need to worry about sales or have a salesperson lord over you. It's very different than a mom and pop jeweler job.

Cons

Depending on the shop/manager your growth can be stagnanted. The company pushes for number of units and that's created a mentality of a focus for lesser quality workmanship to pass through QC. The store side salespeople don't get trained well on their side and will lean on the service center side to do the technical things for them. The sales staff knowledge on jewelry can be next to nothing because it's not a requirement for them, so that adds a lot of friction between jeweler and sales staff.
