Guess? reviews

CAREER OPPORTUNITY o Do your news research on the company revenue!! Guess investment ratings are down across all boards. Analysts are advising their investors to SELL their stocks. ♣ Result – there are continuous lay-offs, company wide on all levels o VERYYY LIMITED PROMOTION FROM WITHIN ♣ I have seen countless employees work tirelessly for years to prove themselves for a promotion, yet management (often new) will continuously hire from outside the company • Even with a high turn over rate and plenty of opportunity to promote their employees, they prefer to poach people from other companies, as this is their idea of remaining competitive ♣ Result- 98% of employees are either laid off or move on to a better salary and title at a different company • MANAGEMENT LACKS LEADERSHIP ♣ Office politics are out of control. Many of the higher-ups who have been there for a million years get away with their cruel behavior because they’ve been with the company so long ♣ Management’s only real concern is making sure their boss believes they are doing a great job ♣ To my personal experience, after 2 years, not once did my manager ask how I was doing, offer any constructive feedback on my job-performance, respond to requests for touch-base meetings, or plan a team building activity of any kind. I was constantly guessing what my manager was thinking. Rather simply offer direct feedback, I had to make out hidden messages from a passive aggressive personality. • On multiple occasions, if I made a mistake or wasn’t executing the (never-clear-to-begin-with) way of doing things properly, my Manager would reprimand me via email and CC other managers and employees in the department who had no involvement o This was the bosses was of showing power in humiliating me, and it worked. I was frightened and walking on egg shells all of the time • Of the 10+ departments I worked with, I can think of only one example of leadership in management, team morale, and positive demeanor. That department is Social Media. • HUMAN RESOURCES (if you can even call it that) ♣ After countless emails and phone calls to HR for advice on my manager, not one person responded to me ♣ I reported an injury at work to HR, mainly so they could take action to prevent this from happening to another employee • DAYS after my injury, I get a call from the company lawyer to see if I needed to see a doctor o Just one example of MANY, where HR proved to care more about protecting themselves from a lawsuit than the well-being of their employees

Here it is folks all the rumors you have heard about the cameras and the being on time are true. They also have a dress code, probably because they don't want to see what quality clothes look like. They rush everything and will have one person pull the weight of 3-4 people. You are always on edge because you know you are going to get fired, unless you have a good relationship with the family that runs the company. They have a million rules that are impossible to follow if you want to get your work done. If you are on the bottom of the totem pole everything gets blamed on you. I have never in my life experienced such a toxic work environment. But hey it shows in their product and in their sales. The organization is well, not there. As for support, you better hope you make some friends cuz you ain't gonna get it from your manager. I don't really understand why everyone on here is bragging about the discount. 40% is a joke, my motto 40% off piece a junk is still a piece of junk. The pay is horrible compared to the hours, this includes weekends, you are expected to work and stress and abuse you will endure.Everyone says Guess? is a resume booster, I say don't even take their phone calls, they will lie to you and misrepresent themselves. There is a reason they have to recruit all their employees, no one wants to work there.
