Hi, Sorry to hear you worked longer hours than anticipated - I appreciate this can be challenging, although as a team we aim to work towards the same goal (even when we have to work longer hours during busy periods)! Our CEO is constantly analysing the market and looking ahead to define strategic priorities. Kind regards, Ivy, Resourcing and Talent Coordinator.

Hi, thanks for leaving us a review! We have a small team structure within the press team. Therefore, there could be days where you are asked to support with facilitating events but also days that include admin. I understand this type of diversity in a role can be challenging, although having the passion to fulfill all parts of your job role will really your support development and it will help to make sure you get the best out of your internships. Kind regards, UK Talent Acquisition Team

Cheap, nasty company

Pros

looks good on CV, give you £5 for lunch voucher which is not enough for lunch since they expect you to work from 9am to late in the evening sometimes 10, 11pm with only one break all day...

Cons

cheap, nasty, pays transport at end of month within zone 1-3, nothing learned, stupid tasks such as running clothes to different fashion houses ie you are the porter which porters are paid more to run errands and drop items off, nasty employees that treat interns very very badly,

Hi, Thank you for sharing your feedback from the time you worked at Stella! I am sorry to hear you did not leave with a lasting positive impression, after your 'Work Experience' placement. Since 2014, we have been offering an enhanced salary package in the UK, in-comparison to what may have been offered in 2013. At at peak times within the fashion industry, there can be some days where the team work a couple extra hours. This is a team effort, the team are so passionate about the execution and meeting the highest standards. Coordinating the delivery of product samples to fashion houses, may not feel like the most exciting task within the PR team, although it's a great opportunity to network and make contacts within the industry! I would love to follow-up with your feedback, please can you drop me an e-mail so we can speak about your time at Stella? - uk.recruitment@kering.com Thank you, UK Talent Acquisition Team
