Pros

The pay is better than at most luxury boutiques and the traffic flow is low because the products are very expensive. The bread and butter of the brand are Birkins and Kelly bags. Customers in general are polite and respectful.

Cons

In the summer there are days when we see one or two customers walk in so it can be very boring. The worst thing about this store is that it is a franchise and there is no one to talk to as an employee when things go wrong. The management is dictatorial, narrow minded and mean spirited.

Pros

Put a lot of money on renovation the office, good office machine (the only pro I can think of)

Cons

1. they always start with a contract which means the pay is low, no benefits, etc (7 DAYS ANNUAL LEAVES per year (PRO RATA)), they excuse is 'no headcount'/'headcount has not being approved by paris' 2. 0 technology invested, only use microsoft office, 0 other software, database management system, even ERP is not being used. 3. Workload is quite high, even perm employee the benefit is little. colleuages are not smart, seems like they are here just because they cannot really find a job outside. 4. most of the managements are French so if you are not french... 5. culture is quite toxic, eg, they really like to catch on what time you come in, what time you leave the offices, etc. 6. No WFH. 7. hours can be long. 9. a lot of small circles inside 10. everything needs to be approved by HQ and they are always on holiday, etc (loads of excuses)
