lululemon reviews

Management is not always aware of the needs of educators and tend to play favorites.

Lululemon is a company that is growing very fast but does not know how to handle the growth. There is very little leadership in the management team of Lululemon head office. Many managers focus more on proving themselves to their bosses than leading their teams. The company has become quite corporate. Some managers set themselves apart from employees because they have the manager title. Experts hired to do technical jobs aren’t respected for their expertise but are told how to do their job by managers who don’t have the required technical knowledge or skills. Culture has become “saying the cultural keywords” in conversations rather than actually living it. Sustainability is not being valued in many practices, from basic office materials and supplies through to product development and production. Departments work in silos and do not understand how one part can deeply impact the other parts, which has constant negative impact on workflow. The company cannot come up with a process to manage the workflow, but the management team is really slow in acknowledging and responding to that. Some senior managers have no clue how hard employees have to work to make things happen and keep product delivery on time. There is very little integrity in the management team in terms of keeping their word, working within the timeline, and acting as leaders that represent the company’s culture. However, the company fails to recognize the problem in the management team and is constantly losing skilled employees.
