Pros

Good pay, put Chanel on your CV, free cosmetic goods, employee discount

Cons

Extremely long hour. Managers are micromanagement and extremely toxic culture. Only care about themselves and treat people carelessly like robot. Hard to learn and grow on the position.

Pros

You receive amazing health benefits, time off, sick days, vacation days, a generous employee discount (when it's not suspended lol) and multiple opportunities to grow within the company. You also gain information and knowledge every time you work.

Cons

The employee discount can be suspended at any time without notice due to product scarcity, retail hours can exhaust you out, wearing all black everyday, and the work that you can become a bit repetitive.

Advice to Management

Make sure you invest time in your retail and corporate employees, learning their likes and dislikes, knowing how they are doing in their personal lives, and making sure you encourage them to grow within the company. Also creating a sense of togetherness among one another helps tremendously.

Pros

Great benefits, small bonus for back of house positions, slightly larger bonus for front of house, 3 weeks vacation plus 10 sick days to start your employment. Decent pay but could be so so so much better.

Cons

Only employees in management positions get further promotions. Not enough front and back of house support throughout pandemic. Too many stretch assignments, doesn’t match pay/job title. They make you do more to prove you’re worth a promotion even though you’re already doing so much. More diversity in management positions. Management and Corporate are treated like royalty and some fashion advisors/ most stock associates get treated like 3rd class citizens. Unfair rule change of removing grade period. Too much external hiring instead of properly developing staff to fulfill leadership roles. Pay better, prices have gone up tremendously yet these influencers, editors, randoms, and ambassadors get free things and waste everyone’s budget. Those resources could go to paying your staff better, not the occasional unhealthy snacks/treats. Healthy snacks were cut at the start of pandemic. Retention has been abysmal for some positions. People stay because of the benefits and discount. Favoritism was a major problem not sure anymore.

Advice to Management

Stop shopping so much, stop making everyone’s job harder, stop fraternizing so much. Focus on making everyone’s job easier, be realistic. Everyone (EVERYONE) get off your personal phones and work together consistently.

Pros

Salary, benefits, generous employee discount, brand name reputation, learned a lot

Cons

The leadership in IT starting from the top caused a big decline over the last several years and has created a toxic culture and stressful work environment. They no longer value loyalty of people who have worked there for so many years, while others who get rewarded and promoted aren’t always the most talented. Many long term employees have been pushed to the sidelines and will eventually be managed out in due time. We have lost some really good talent because of poor leadership. Things used to be much better years ago before everything became so political. It is not the place it used to be. The company had a layoff last year due to COVID, but it was mainly used as an excuse to clean house of long term employees that they wanted to push out. While some positions were truly eliminated, several other job openings were simply reposted online to rehire new people for similar roles. They basically made slight modifications to the title and job description to make the job look different, but in reality the role was basically the same.

Advice to Management

Recognize the existing talent and loyalty that is right in front of you and don’t take them for granted.
