Pinkyotto Reviews

Company does not have direction. Instead of hiring managers, sales associates work hard to fill these positions with little pay. If you don't reach your goal you get in trouble by the owner of the store. He’s not worried about sales associate, just about money. Constantly putting them down, instead of encouraging them to do better. Every time a shopper would inquire about the material of the clothing, "management" simply would say polyester or a mix of materials; which makes no sense to me. How can you run a company, when you don't know the material of the merchandise you're selling? After the interview process, I was offered a temp position to show them my working abilities. This was part of the hiring process. I truly was used just to fill in for the sample sale. Later, I realized this job was extremely unprofessional and a waste of time. No sense of order whatsoever! Owner use and abuse the associates to sell sell sell (Overkill) without commission, corresponding to the craigslist ad! I worked a whole week from 11-8 with a 15-20 min break! They decided to let me go on a Saturday because I couldn't work the following Sunday; which was the next day (Easter Sunday) I have so much to say. That’s it for now.

The owner Peter is pretty much a jerk. He's known to swear and yell at employees and even his ex-wife/business partner, Ryo in front of everyone. He holds weekly group meetings where sales associates are scored for their performances based off of data he's collected from intense business practices, like installing motion detectors at each entrance to track foot traffic and thus compute conversion rates. It got so bad I'd have anxiety when I walked under any door and would plead for the winder washers not to walk in and out to set off the tracker and offset my rating. It was also incredible how arrogant he was when he was so out of touch with actually selling his clothes and interacting with customers. Most important the clothes are imported cheap and in bulk from Asia and sometimes we'd even have to cut the labels off to replace with those from Pinkyotto, who would then sell them at an absurd markup. Seriously, save your money for better clothes (and possibly better people) elsewhere.
