QVC reviews

QVC tries to be a good place to work in terms of the overall company values, pay and benefits. However, they will work you to the bone. My experience there was a very negative one- I left each day feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. I also was forced to take work home many nights and weekends just to try to keep up. Their idea of employee recognition is "you're tough- I know you can do it". Translation being- keep working because nothing's going to change. Nothing did change in the several years I was there, in fact, they just added more work. I made the decision to leave when I realized they would never change. I don't recommend this company. They don't practice what they preach- and they do a whole lot of preaching about 'work/ life balance' and company values. I regret working at QVC.

I see a lot of IT people here who don't appear terribly bright to me. Some of the legacy mainframe developers don't strike me as geniuses. There are some really bright Java developers here, but there are also some developers that seem to be skating as well. I'd prefer to be in a high-energy creative product development environment and be around the kind of people that type of environment attracts. Salaries aren't super-competitive here. The benefits and quality of life make up the difference to me, however. A haven't met many people here who are self-aware either. Maybe that's true at most companies, I don't know.
