I learned a lot...about business & about life.

Store planner

Business Outlook

Pros

The majority of the people are nice. Good benefits. Opportunity to be involved in different aspects of the business. Great place for buyers/merchants.

Cons

Took way too long to get "new systems" up & running. Was there for over 4 years as a Store Planner & spent 90% of that time allocating. Job description didn't even begin to come to fruition until my last year there. As a planner, expect lots of late nights crunching numbers. And expect Buying to run just about everything.

Too much favoritism

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Employee discount is pretty good compared with other companies. Got hired on the spot. Easy interviews because they hire everyone even with no retail experience.

Cons

Management has their own favs route employees and they never work as a team. Been with company for 3 years and CANNOT wait to get a better job.

Good and Bad

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay (above average) great discounts in all PVH company stores, on Summer Fridays you do leave at 1pm. Many holidays off.

Cons

Management micro manages everyone. No one works as a team anymore like they did previously. Poor working conditions created with clothes racks blocking every aisle, also creates a fire hazard. You are expected to be in early and work late. Other than Summer Fridays you work 11 to 12 hours a day at least 70% of the time.
