Pros

Montblanc sells the best writing instruments, I got to learn a lot about time pieces. Great customers, most of the, very educated business men.

Cons

Where do I start? One word "horrible" management. Bullies, racists, unprofessional managers, manager stilling sales from associates (it happened to me). Gossips and backstabbing is the normal, calling names, and making fun of someone physical aspect it was something so normal for my manager. Everybody in my team quit because they were so unhappy. We were always understaff and we had to work more than 40 h a week, without any word of appreciation. The turn over is so high. It was the most unhappy year of my life while I worked at Montblanc. It is sad. It could have been a very nice place to work, but unfortunately I had a very bad manager, and this person is still there, even thought the HR was informed about all this unprofessional behavior. It is an embarrassment that Richemont, a company with such prestige it employed people like my formal manager.

Pros

Some people were tight but majority of time people come and go.

Cons

They expect you to follow policy to the tee and when you do, you will be written up for it by your store manager. They know that robberies are a thing, people will go in and just start stealing stuff. We are told NOT to engage per our own safety. But tell me how I am getting written up by my store manager for NOT DOING MY JOB and then getting a call from corporate for my lack of work. Are you kidding me? You write me up because policy says do not engage with situations that may endanger me? Yeah, I am so glad that I left this brand because there really isn't a future here. I hope that this brand fails to the ground.
