Vera Bradley reviews

Company fired one of the two Assistant Managers due to a company wide policy because of lower sales. In our store they kept the Assistant Manager that had more issues and was less qualified because she had more time in her position. BIG MISTAKE. Upper Management does not listen to employees and HR always sides with management regardless of the truth. Almost every associate has left and management and HR still haven't addressed the issues. Now that Assistant Manager is a Manager. The tardy policy is a joke, the new manager strolls in late within days of her promotion, however the associates are tardy after 1 minute. A backwards way to set an example.

Their operational policies and procedures are a disaster they would rather focus their time on visuals and making the store look cute. Store level management is a joke, they all put on the "I'm professional" act meanwhile they are all in their 40's and 50's and act less mature than the 18 year old sales associations Management is hypocritical, telling the associates to not do specific things like "talk about coworkers" or "dont talk about personal issues on the sales floor" then they turn around and do the same thing as if its fine because its a "manager" doing it. They cant really fire someone so they will give you 5 hours a week (even though company policy is a minimum of 10). If something happens to you and you contact corporate the manager will make stories up to try and cover their tails even if it means you get in trouble for it. Dont work for this company unless you're a store manager or have a plan b. Just another company putting on a cute facade meanwhile their insides are rotten.
