L.L. Bean reviews

The company lacks a real career path, and advancement is driven by favoritism rather than merit. Gossip, nepotism, and outdated systems are widespread. Many directors and VPs appear underqualified and openly undermine one another, while executives show little understanding of the industry. A significant number of long-term employees are in roles they are not equipped for, which contributes to chronic dysfunction. The brand’s ethical issues and internal inconsistencies further damage trust. Sales are weak, the company is consistently behind competitors, and ongoing asset sell-offs and layoffs suggest deeper instability. It’s hard to see long-term leadership or direction, and the future of the company appears uncertain.

Infrequent hours, dynamic schedule, rude customers
