Pros – Great heritage and traditions surround this company's work and management. A pleasure to experience

Current Employee – been working at Richemont

Pros – I only see as an advantage the bargain prices that you can get on jewelries and fancy watches. I can not find any others.

Cons – Things are obsolete in Richemont.
People are not motivated and are trying to move away whenever they can (huge turnover)
there is a lack of consideration for the employees...
