A thankless work environment

Pros

Summer Fridays, cheap vending machine, good if you like a start up environment (even though they should be way past that by now)

Cons

Working at Bluefly was brutal. In the many years I was there, I was expected to take on the responsibilities of several superiors. I was never asked, just expected. For this I received no promotion, no raise, not even a thank you. Worse, I was constantly criticized for my work by upper management from other departments who had no clue what they were talking about, and shouldn't have had authority over me in the first place. I also worked 12+ hour days throughout the holidays with no acknowledgement whatsoever. While at Bluefly I saw disaster after disaster occur including undeserved promotions and terrible financial decisions. I won't even get into the mess that is the Bluefly marketplace.

We appreciate this Associate's comments. Bluefly welcomes all feedback, both positive and negative. Negative responses cause us to either change course of action or better communicate action we're already taking to make the company a better place to work. We treat our associates with the utmost respect and we reward and promote where appropriate and necessary. When working in the retail industry, extra hours around the holidays are the norm for any company and although we are putting in the extra hours, we always ensure our associates understand just how much we appreciate them for doing so.

Horrible Workplace

Pros

I wish I had pros to comment about....

Cons

No hope for raises or advancement because it is not within their "budget". Bad health insurance, no 401(k) matching. Laying off all the people who knew how to do their jobs. Replacing some positions with outsourcing. HR will never respond to you at all if you have issues regarding health insurance or anything that has to do with the company.

The Worst Place I Have Ever Worked

Pros

Checks cleared when we were meant to be paid.

Cons

Terrible clueless leadership , specifically the CMO/CEO/President (she has an always evolving title) who is mean, overly involves herself in day to day activities but fails to correct a rapidly sinking ship. No 401K Matching.
