EVEREVE reviews

This environment is highly competitive and can feel exclusionary at times. There is a pervasive “mean girl” culture, where professionalism and inclusivity are lacking. Interactions can be surface-level polite but often marked by gossip, even involving customers. * Not an inclusive or supportive environment. Favoritism and inconsistency are common, with policies enforced selectively depending on leadership preference. * Conversations of a personal or inappropriate nature occur in customer-facing areas, such as fitting rooms, during work hours. * Despite legal requirements, there is a culture of working through breaks. Employees who take their allotted breaks may be looked down upon. * Compensation is below market rate and not competitive. *No paid holidays. *30% discount for part-time employees, 40% for full-time employees. Employees have only 7 days to make returns and cannot price-match or use discounts online. * The sales culture is extremely aggressive, often compared to a car-sales approach. *There is little to no growth mindset. Once leadership forms an opinion about an employee, opportunities for development or correction are minimal. *False claims or gossip can escalate to leadership, where favoritism influences outcomes rather than facts. *Standard operating procedures (SOPs) are applied inconsistently depending on the area leader. *Stores use heavily scented machines despite policies prohibiting perfume use. *The company has close ties with local churches and frequently sponsors religious events, creating a workplace that may not feel inclusive for all employees or religions. *Demonstrates discriminatory practices and lacks inclusivity, particularly toward transgender individuals. When I suggested that the store would benefit from greater diversity—specifically by hiring a male associate—I was met with resistance. I was explicitly told that Evereve would not hire a man unless he was gay, which reflects a troubling and biased hiring mindset.
