Pros

Great promotions and employee discounts. Didn't pay well for a " luxury brand " Loved my staff but did not support company dynamic. Higher ups were out there for themselves.

Cons

After 4 months of being there, massive layoffs happened where they laid off all AGMs and made assistant managers work more hours for salary instead of paying them the hourly they deserved for all of the over time hours they put in. They attributed more of the company budget into giving out free champagne and beer to their clients than to give us uniform regularly and to pay for enough staff to run the store.

Pros

• Strong brand recognition and a loyal customer base. • Employee discount and sample sales are excellent perks. • Talented and hardworking teams across many functions.

Cons

• Work-life balance is extremely challenging, particularly at the leadership level. Long hours and constant availability are often expected rather than the exception. • The culture can feel transactional and driven by a "got you" mentality rather than collaboration, coaching, and development. • Favoritism and nepotism are noticeable and can create inconsistent standards across teams and individuals. • Leadership accountability is lacking. Expectations are often high, but accountability is not always applied equally across the organization. • Decision-making can feel political, with perception carrying more weight than actual performance or results. • There is a significant gap between the company's external messaging and the internal employee experience. While the brand publicly champions women and female empowerment, many employees may find that the internal culture does not consistently reflect those values in practice. • Transparency, integrity, and trust can be lacking, which contributes to an environment where employees may feel unsupported or undervalued.
