      Pros

      Coach definitely built to my overall leadership skill sets such being entrepreneurial, adaptable, team building and leading with innovation. Their approach to customer service is top tier.

      Cons

      The bias policies and procedures. A lot of the retail politics made the work environment more toxic towards the end as well sometimes the didn’t keep the employee experience elevated.

        Pros

        Great way to keep informed in the fashion industry and seeing a lot of products. Really great customer interactions and making a customer feel special

        Cons

        Higher ups do not care about associates. I understand retail is about numbers but after years of working there, there was little to keep me wanting to stay. You work your hardest and get little to no recognition, they work you hard and to get nothing back. I’ve learned so much from my years there but it’s not a great environment to work in.

            Great benefits and awesome teamwork! Good environment to work in.... Would definitely return to be part of this company and their goods

            Cons

            I don't have anything negative to say. Great experience and would join the company in the near future.

              Pros

              The work environment is very casual and they give a lot of freedom to their interns. Interns interact with people of all different departments, so it provided an in depth understanding of the fashion industry.

              Cons

              The office was difficult to get to and the area was not very nice.

                Pros

                It was a great work environment which encouraged me to do really well at my job selling to customers.

                Cons

                The bonus pay was a pittance and the management was condescending.

                  Working for this company I had fantastic benefits; medical, dental, vision, PTO and Vacation time. It was a very professional and fun environment to work with and to this day I still miss that job.

                  Cons

                  Better Pay and no company growth.

                      Very friendly and relaxed work environment. Progress and innovation is the way here.

                      Cons

                      Too much meetings, there is pre-meeting to a meeting. There is too much brainstorming and no funds to back it.

                      Thank you for your review! We're excited to see what happens next as Coach continues to go through its brand transformation. The abundance and frequency of meetings is something that's been taken into serious consideration. That's why senior leadership has now implemented meeting free Fridays each month, and has also asked that we think about whether or not each meeting is truly necessary. We hope this helps your work experience go forward.

                        Pros

                        Management is awesome. They pay very well. They have good commission plan and benefits. Good work environment and very open to new ideas.

                        Cons

                        You have to stand for long hours specially if you have a long shift. Also, they are very obsessed about engaging with the customer. This is bad if you are shy.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
