lululemon reviews

Better suited for those athletic and often young and inexperienced individuals who have less financial obligations. A good or bad store manager can make or break your career and experience. Of course, It is your responsibility to make sure you are drawn to the store that is the best fit for you. As a U.S. Citizen, you should research and be very real about your growth potential to corporate. This is a Canadian company and while they have some U.S. based corporate positions, getting permission to work in Canada requires you to be extremely skilled or experienced. This can be limiting to your potential.

Little work/life balance, expectation to go 'above and beyond', expectation to read various books and attend events and trainings for which you are not paid, a 'type A'/perfectionist environment that encourages working overtime but doesn't compensate accordingly. Management at lululemon includes a lot of 'personal development' which is both beneficial and also a negative at times. Employees are held to frequently unattainable standards of 'always being on', 'being bright and shiny', 'giving 110% at all times', 'having high energy at all times', etc. -- these are great standards to have but become quickly suffocating when they're used as catchphrases on a daily basis and are the litmus test for employee effectiveness and contribution.
