Pros

Fast paced work environment Good hourly Employee discount website (when things are available) Travel for training.

Cons

Terrible commission structure ($2,030 monogram neverfull pays out $2.30) If it’s a leather item you get 1% ($2,000 makes you $20) They cheat employees out of commission No incentive to sell but they want you to work hard and be stretched thin. You can only spend 3,000 in store with 30% discount, you can’t buy anything in a new release. You have to wait 6 months for a product to be out before it’s eligible for discount.. so you can kiss anything that you like in a new launch goodbye (they honestly don’t pay enough for employees to buy their products.) New policy or change like every other week. They cut hours when the multi billion company isn’t doing “well” . Lowest paying commission structure for any luxury retailer. No ability to move up in the ranks unless you brown nose the managers and corporate. The HR system is a joke, make complaints and nothing gets done.

Pros

The only pro is the company discount

Cons

Employees are being forced to come back into the office 3 times a week with little care for their health and safety. LVMH does not believe in work from home even though employees have shown they are more productive.

Pros

1. Good exposure to luxury brands/market with attractive staff discounts time to time. It is easier to get noticed in your job search once you have a luxury brand under your portfolio. 2. Work-life balance is pretty reasonable and less toxic in general compared to other MNCs.

Cons

1. Nationalism It is very challenging for locals to climb the corporate ladder as most managers or sometimes even executive roles are prioritised / reserved for French. 2. No Clear Progression That said in #1, no clear career planning with HR or management. Being non-french is seen as a hindrance for any progression. 3. Lack of Transparency in HR HR is relatively powerless when it comes to work place bullying. Management tend to abuse their power to cohere employees and threaten with poor performance. 4. Toxic & Insensitive Bosses - Was on 3 day sick leave but was called back on the second day to settle some admin/ops issues that the boss was too lazy to address. - Boss would expect you to OT everyday and made snark remarks shall you leave on time. It isn’t a healthy culture if one were to fear for their job safety simply just by leaving on time.
