      Talbots reviews

      Talbots was a good starting off point, but I feel that it needs to put more faith into its employees and their knowledge - Allocation Analyst Talbots Employee Review

      Pros

      Friendly environment. Claim to promote from within It is in the midst of re-branding itself still so it is an exciting time to work there. The "new" president seems to be very dedicated to the brand.

      Cons

      Do not value the knowledge and work of employees enough. Promotions seem to be based solely on the amount of time you worked there - but should focus more on how hard you have worked and what you have to offer.

      Pros

      None. This company is garbage compared to how it used to be.

      Cons

      Slave wages, not enough hours for anyone except management because the private equity company that owns us has cut our staff to a skeleton crew even on busy days. Management and associate alike are stretched super thin to the point of exhaustion. Even as a sales associate, there was a time I supported myself on a Talbots salary. Now I have to choose between paying my car insurance or getting an oil change. I used to get 30+ hours a week even as a sales associate. Now I'm lucky if I get 20. Health benefits are a rip-off. The company in my observation has had a time finding and maintaining good workers. If you value your livelihood, run fast and run far.
