Pros

If you love fashion, this company may be for you- they live and breathe fashion. The new head office space is beautiful. Great staff discount. Good bonus when it pays out (depends on results). They value people who drive results.

Cons

As is common in retail, a little too reactionary based on recent results- makes it hard to see a program through. Sometimes this goes to the point of feeling like ADD. They try to do too much and this results in many projects not getting enough attention to succeed.

Pros

I cannot recommend working here enough. My time here was so much fun. The work environment also added to my great experience working at Holt Renfrew. This company caters well to their clients and employees. I loved being able to have a say in which brands the department would bring in. The sales associates are the ones most connected with the clients so I enjoyed that they listened to our opinions. The management was very good also and I found that everyone had lots of experience and were qualified to be managers (unlike Nordstrom, which lets people be in management who shouldn’t.) The company holds many events which is fun for employees and clients alike. Overall, I would recommend working here to anyone.

Cons

If you are working on full commission it can be difficult to make income when slow seasons come and I think they should change that because it would create a less competitive environment and allow employees to make more genuine connections with the clients. This is only in one department.
