Pros

Good benefits, nice employee discounts, bragging rights, nice balance between work and personal life, 401K and pension plan and beautiful offices.

Cons

Toxic environment, morale is low, poor communication between management, difficult for junior and lower level employees to get ahead, proper credit not given to job well done, some senior management seems to get off on mistreating subordinates, constant restructuring by president causing people to feel pressured or on edge, people are treated like commodities, technologically behind, poor motivation and incentives, lower salaries even for industry standards, obvious caste system, blatant favoritism and not any sort of training ever, even when people ask for it.

Pros

?Prestigious brand ?Chanel has some incredible people working for the company. ?Great products to work with

Cons

Although Chanel is a prestigious and well known brand, the reputation that the current management is cultivating with retailers is negative and often embarrassing for the sales force. Part of our job was spent making excuses for why the company failed to execute promised events or promotions due to the lack of organization with upper management. Chanel looks disorganized, employees are dissatisfied and the turnover is uncommonly frequent for this industry.
