Unrealistic expectations in a volatile environment - Anonymous employee QVC Employee Review

Unrealistic expectations to be completed within a 40 hour work week. The work load per person requires that you work far more than 8 hours per day...even if you are salary you are expected to work on weekends for events. Its a 24/7 business & you are expected to be available even though you are not compensated for it. They preach work life balance yet the "expectations" do not allow for much balance. There are so many meetings about meetings that it is impossible to get your actual work done during business hours, yet it is expected you get everything done before leaving for the day. I would not recommend working at QVC to anyone.
