Vantaggi

My coworkers were wonderful people, and free yoga! Personal and professional development was good, though the Landmark Forum is COMPLETELY NUTS.

Svantaggi

Trying to move up in the company. I have 2 higher degrees (BA and MA) in a field that would allow me to move up in any apparel company, and it was my dream to work in HQ at lulu. But for some reason I wasn't able. I financed a trip myself to canada and visited/shadowed the team I wanted to eventually be on, networked, sent emails, communicated with my store manager, applied to the position I wanted, etc. I was part time at lulu & had a 2nd job relevant to my eventual dream job, but always expressed a desire to become full time at lulu on the store level in an effort to eventually move up to my dream job there. After a year and a half in this situation, I couldn't even even achieve full time status in the store; in fact, there were newer employees than I that were given full time status before me. I GAVE UP and now work in HQ at a different apparel company. Looking back, it's hard to fight the feeling that I wasted a year and a half working there for nothing...

Vantaggi

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Svantaggi

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
