Talbots reviews

Thought employee discount was impressive until I purchased clothes, of inferior quality, sizing wrong, and poor styles. Not the Talbots of yesterday.

Talbots values an ability to foster client relationships. Their approach to supporting employees seems holistic: training, role playing, and clear goals. The cake is iced by the managers' ability to provide realtime feedback and coaching. From the HR side, 1) the company mission and associated values are known by all employees and 2) compensation is realistic for retail sales. Every sales person can focus on the client as we work as a team rather than individually earned commission. Other great aspects are the experience level of management and the years of service of employees--- the minimal attrition enables building of competence and good teamwork.
