As a new part of an internationally recognized company, GUESS Accessories has no appreciation for their employees

Pros

40% Discount on the entire Guess family stores, discounts on sale items as well as online and children wear as well Work in an internationally recognized lead trend-setting environment Must dress Sexy/Sophisticated each shift and maintain an endearing yet very upbeat persona

Cons

Considering this is the Accessory store - very high sales quota, expected to constantly exceed Employees are replaceable Very FEW hours given Employees can be "blacklisted" - if you have a few shifts with consistently lower than budget sales or any disagreements or altercations with "favorite" employees (ones who bring high revenue) or the management team you will be put on an only on-call schedule but never be asked to come in Employees are expected to achieve a high amount with little appreciation Lack of training for such a competitive sales company Not commission based, few incentives
