Talbots reviews

Having worked in a high volume store for years, you get worked to death. Being full time is brutal physically. Management fails to reward employees who consistently contribute in high sales numbers, customer satisfaction, team building, and that are very reliable. Loyalty and taking ownership of your job and responsibilities are often and consistently overlooked or ignored. In addition, management of fellow employees behavior on the sales floor in regards to bullying other sales associates for sales is at best weak. Current members of the sales team stereotype customers by their looks, speak of politics and religion on the sales floor. If you want a place to work your way up, this is not it.

Extreme pressure as a result of the company not performing well. High stress as a result of personal productivity goals/selling requirements at all levels. Dress code requirements are a bit unreasonable, especially for part-time associates. On an associate level, pay is not adequate for what the selling expectations are. Across the board, expectations are unreasonable from project deadlines to visual standards. Poor leadership development/advancement. Poor corporate communication.
