Signet Jewelers Reviews

Pros

Decent place to work. Chances to move across stores. Large selection for clientele. Good credit plan. New lines and products

Advice to Management

Listen to the folks on the front lines

Pros

Very laid back company, coworkers are very nice. Easy to find work balance if you work at headquarter and work effectively.

Advice to Management

Senior leadership lack of vision to develop the strategy proactively, very conservative to adapt new technology and strategy. It is a traditional old-school company. They are trying to change the image. Mid-management dedicate to work but their abilities are constrained by senior management. Mid-management cares about employee's career path if employee is career driven employee.

Pros

Jewelry pay and hours

Advice to Management

Never wanted to be manager

Pros

Large company with decent reputation. Owns the biggest retail jewelry stores. Very good training for new/current employees; generous with vacations and days off; good with employees. Great HR department.

Advice to Management

Pay stricter attention to store management.

Pros

Excellent public relations department that shines up the ugly parts of this once great company. Great health benefits and paid time off programs.

Advice to Management

Stop managing from the ivory tower. The field has valid opinions that no one wants to hear.

Working with some wonderfully, talented people

Advice to Management

It's a sinking ship guys! Sales are down because things are changing yet your way of thinking is not.

Pros

Benefits including stock savings, jewelry discounts & tuition reimbursement
Onsite fitness center
Mark Light is great, approachable, genuine & really does appreciate team members
Casual work environment/ability to wear denim by donating to local charities

Advice to Management

The company's values have continued to decline over the last 5+ years. Employees do not feel valued & are losing respect & trust in management, especially over the last year. It's very sad. I used to believe Signet was a great company & was stable. Multiple layoffs in the last year. Employees are finally gaining the courage to look for other job opportunities.

Pros

Great place to work, good people, good environment, easy sales

Advice to Management

None

Pros

High performance-high reward organization. Training and incentive programs are best in class for retail. Team members have the ability to move through the organization and build a career.

Pros

Decent, competitive medical benefits. Employee discount on merchandise. The company gives to charitable causes. (Unfortunately, however, as you can see it also avoids putting tax revenue back into the U.S. economy by basing its "headquarters" in Bermuda). At the corporate offices there are a few departments where some team members actually appear to enjoy their jobs enough to stick around for years despite the routine 50+ hour work weeks and below-market pay.

Advice to Management

Reward genuine intelligence, innovation and integrity, instead of rewarding only blind loyalty, happy talk and years of tenure. Don't delude yourself by thinking these unflattering reviews are only coming from maladjusted or incompetent former employees, because they are not. Stop living in the past while making silly noises about having a vision for the future. (Most of your employees are not nearly as dumb and gullible as you think they are).
