Svantaggi
Upper Management and Buyers are ruthless. People will throw you under a bus in a heartbeat. If a Buyer doesn't like you, you're gone. I was controlled by the Buyers who had zero fashion sense and zero experience in apparel design and trends. The Buyers were shopping at Kohls and bringing the Designers products from the Kohl's sales floor and asking us to "knock it off". In what day in age are we in where we have to knock of Kohls? Super sad. I was placed with a Temp upon my arrival and she stopped at nothing to sabotage my job there so she could take it. The place is full of friendly people, but if you don't "drink the koolaid and gel with the JCP culture", you'll be thrown out. Simple as that. One week my boss was calling me "sweetpea" and the next she was silent and talking about me behind my back to my colleagues. They told me.
