Pros

Hobbs has lovely clothes to work with and sell, especially if you are in to quality fashion and the regular customers that came in to store, were nice. You also had a uniform allowance which is good if you work on a full time wage, but not if you are a part timer and expected to still buy uniform pieces in addition to your free uniform.

Cons

There was no support from upper management to staff or store managers who are extremely loyal to Hobbs; therefore they make you feel undervalued when you have a track record of working your hardest! There is no fairness across the board with decision making that affects the store and this affects all the staff. HR team are not very supportive in resolving any issues and Management do not recognise what bullying is but decide to take a bias stand in many cases.

Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback. It is disappointing to hear your views on the structure of our team in New York.
