Maurices reviews

I was in management for over 7 years and could have stayed forever if growth opportunities were more attainable. Too many stores! Over 1000 of any store is just too much and doesn’t leave much room for growth within. Very discouraging to see leaders coming in from outside of the brand when there are amazing people within their own walls. If you feel like you have to bring someone in from another brand, there might be an issue with people development, Just saying.

Training is inconsistent and they don’t care about if you are ready for what they’re asking you. I worked twice before they had me open and close and run the store by myself. I didn’t feel ready. Almost cultish with how they handle customers referring to all of them as “Liv”. My store leader would say “That mannequin is horrendous. Liv wouldn’t want that.” So weird. Almost impossible to get shifts covered and say goodbye to weekends. Evenings will be scheduled until 8:15 but you never get out on time. They focus way too much on credit card sign ups. Have to greet the customer within thirty seconds and make small talk until you either annoy them into leaving or are trapped in awkward conversation.
