Pros
The team I got to work with was great. The training was thorough and the product was amazing.
Cons
Wasn’t a big fan that the working week for a manager was Tuesday to Saturday. Would have much preferred it to be Monday to Friday.

Pros
The girls I worked with were wonderful
Cons
The selling techniques they use here to force products on customers are awful, super pushy and head office and management call constantly to push you to sell more, and find ways to blame you for low daily sales even if customers are not coming through the doors. Also the hours required are awful if you like having any sort of life, for a brand that preaches "move, nourish, believe", they really don't care if their staff...

Put the well being of your employees first, and take a look at your sales techniques. Ive had multiple people tell me they won't shop at Lorna Jane as staff will not stop hounding them from the moment they walk in.

Pros
Working with a great group of women and making life long friends.
Cons
Too reactive, unsupported, understaffed and underpaid. Even if you are doing well there, you are constantly having to prove yourself. If you are stressed or unhappy, don't bother telling HR or management because they frankly don't care and will ostracise you. It is Stockholm Syndrome.
Advice to Management
Value your staff more and stop treating them like they are disposable. Make change!

Pros
I learnt and grew so much both as a person and career wise. The support was incredible and found that if there was something I wanted to learn, I would! Made some amazing friends for life here.
Cons
Definitely not for the faint hearted, pressure sometimes got to me. Extremely fast paced so need great time management.

I worked at Lorna Jane part-time for more than a year
Pros
Honestly none besides getting paid
Cons
Management is far to profit oriented and lose sight of employee satisfaction. They do not care about their employees other than them hitting unreasonable targets. Benefits of working there are terrible - 20% off full price - this is the same benefit that customers regularly receive. When compared to competitor Lululemon at 70%, 20% of is shocking.
Advice to Management
Place more importance of caring for employees.

-The only Con being an Outlet was the Balance of STOCK due to Increased sales sometimes missing that sale with the tourists etc.....I know that this was getting better toward the end of my employment!! -The Promo s and sales we had as an OUTLET sometimes went too long which did nt create the impact sometimes that it should!!! every 4 weeks i think it should be changed to keep momentum up and sales ALIVE!!!
Advice to Management
Keep up the GREAT work and continue adding VALUE to W.A and to the LORNA JANE brand as you have and THANK YOU both for such a great EXPERIENCE it was truly FUN, EXCITING and REWARDING to run a LORNA JANE OUTLET!!!!

Pros
Good product training knowledge that’s it. It honestly all depends on your team and state manager
Cons
They put the emphasis on managers to get customers in the store even when you’ve exhausted options they expect you to run events ect. Too much pressure on managers for the stores to reach kpi’s
