Orvis Company reviews

--Weak pay. I made less than $9/hr. That's a tough wage to get by on in Chicago, though perhaps typical for retail. -- The benefits that are out of reach. I was told when I came on that I probably wouldn't opt in. --Not a lot of room for advancement, if you're looking for it. There just aren't a lot of managerial slots, unless you're looking to relocate. --It's tough to get the hours you need. Again, this is nothing new in retail. --It can be a little stuffy. This is Orvis.

Lack of effective management at both senior and retail store level. The company actively inhibits change and innovation. Employee morale is very low with a culture of dishonesty and cover-up amongst senior management. I'd give the Orvis HQ negative stars if that were possible. I've been working at the Orvis U.K. for a number of years now and wouldn’t recommend employment with this company to anyone. I sometimes wonder if the senior management in the U.S. are aware of the incompetence and dishonesty that occurs within the U.K. arm of this company. This company lacks the ambition to change with current retail trends and actively discourages employees from voicing their legitimate concerns regarding poor management performance. As such employee morale and confidence is at an all-time low. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS
