Swarovski will never get it together

Pros

People I worked with were great

Cons

Swarovski thinks too highly of themselves. They are ruining relationships with long term customers and ruining their name in the industry. HQ is always trying to fix their problems but all they ever do is create more problems. You will be expected to work long hours, with outrageous goals and minimal pay. They will promise promotions but it takes years. The employees left are hanging by a thread but HQ doesn’t care. HR doesn’t care they are also almost out the door…they have no real say in the business. All the good people left, the others were let go and all they have now are the people who get paid less or have a paid cap and have no where else to go.

Thank you for your review. We want to ensure you that your concerns will be shared with upper management, as this kind of feedback is crucial to the improvement of our company. Equally important to us, is to make each individual employee, from our stores to our corporate offices, feel that they are valued, heard and listened to. And that they belong. We’re sorry you did not experience that. As always, we wish you all the best in your career and private life.

Don't even think about working there

Pros

The people are great, good discount. This is an inclusive company that works on being diverse

Cons

This company is constantly re-organizing itself which means you will end up doing 5 peoples jobs for minimum pay. Expect to get more work added with every re-organization. There is zero advancement opportunities in this company, just additional work for no additional pay. Also beware the job postings: they are usually for temp positions, not permanent.

Pros

+ really nice, open and international colleagues on lower levels (the higher you look, the uglier it gets) + you learn how NOT to do things

Cons

-Management board zero visionary, strategic or capable of talking to each other -No clarity for employees; usually because the management board fails to follow its own guidance and strategic direction -Politics, lack of transparency, ambiguity, dishonesty ... you name it -People are fired, hired and promoted completely randomly, but definitely not for their skills or talent, rather "back-stabbing" skills -HR comments on open door policy are not true; if one dares to complain, it will never remain anonymous and I have never experienced or heard of any HR interaction that was useful - Same applies to mental health issues - there are so many burnout cases, no one cares. Once Covid is over and job market picks up, this place will be empty
