Svantaggi
Like other posters have stated, HR unfortunately will say ANYTHING at Lands' End to get you on board. These are my favorites from the day I interviewed: "No one ever works past 6pm because our computers shut down to insure you can't stay late and are able to enjoy a work/life balance." I am usually forced to stay at the office until all hours of the night (8, 9, 10pm) . Computers never turn off on me! "Our employees get to enjoy weekly pay checks, unlike other companies who don't offer this perk." One week after I started our paycheck system was changed to every two weeks...like other companies. "We don't tolerate work-place bullying and one offense will get you fired. We only hire the nicest of nice people." One of the higher-ups over Sourcing and Design uses the terms "retarded" and "Dodgeville retarded" to describe how she feels about certain products in the line. She also likes to tell employees that their hard work looks like “something that was made in a garage." All of these comments take place in professional, high level meetings. As other reviews have stated, there are a few select directors that find it within their job descriptions to call out their team individuals for being too skinny, for gaining weight, for simply having different opinions, and the list goes on. HR has been notified of many circumstances yet the work place bullying continues and gets worse yet no one has lost their job. Listen to the other reviews if you are considering LE as a career move. It would save your sanity and mental health to look elsewhere.
