Horrible Management

Keyholder/brand ambassador

Pros

- Free jewelry every 3 months (part-time employees get a 100$ limit and full-time employees get a 200$ limit) - some of my co workers - pay is not minimum wage but still horrible for promotions - you get to learn about crystals and the brand - 50% off all jewelry

Cons

- Management! there is no management courses for the managers to take which results in a very poorly managed team. - Strict Dresscode for employees but managers always seem to ignore it - Toxic work place ( manager got involved with work drama and played favouritism) - Manager promoted work drama.... even after having high turnover!!!! - Pay promotions bump you up a by few cents - No room from growth after retail. - The jewelry quality is horrible and trying to sell it as something luxurious is very hard. Please focus on your jewelry quality because customers do not wish to pay a high price for jewelry that easily tarnishes.

Pros

Product is beautiful. Great benefits including healthcare, vacation, on-site gym, and great product discounts.

Cons

I found very little work-life balance while employed at Swarovski. The atmosphere is highly reactive and stressful. The workload is not manageable, but you have to get it done. Sales are down and therefore the stress weighs on everyone. I worked with great people while there, however most have left and I would not recommend working for the Consumer Goods Business (CGB) side.
