Saks Fifth Avenue – “Great place to work and learn, great work experience.”

Pros

It's a great place to work when you're trying to get a start in the fashion industry, the company is very supportive of their associates and has very high standards for them, so it's a great place for learning.

Cons

There is a lot of down time a certain time of the year, and you do have to deal with a few unbelievably demanding clients, some of which have panic attacks or literally have a nervous break down when they don't get their way, so you do have to have strong service skills.

Advice to Senior Management

Make sure all employees are properly trained on store policies and procedures.
