"Vans is a growing company with great values. It's a simple company that believes in the customer. With the current growth it is hard for Vans to keep up with the times. The training is very basic, POS system needs to be updated so bad, there is no plans for personal growth, and GM's have a hard time being business owners. The great thing is that VANS is learning all of these things and updating. The love that the Van Doreen family has for the company is huge. Makes you want to be a part of the future."

"The women's apparel department is toxic. Full of girls who think they are still in high school, with gossip and interoffice politics. I would not recommend working here."

"Can't beat the work/life balance. With exponential growth, comes confusion."

"Vans is a down to earth company focused on elevating youth action sports specifically in skateboarding and surfing. It is laid back, local, and focused on the family."
