Wouldn't be surprised if several doors close in 2014. They bring in "support" from the UK - 2 "senior managers" who have no experience in LEADING managers or supporting managers.These people create nothing but negative hostile environments in all the stores they visit and managers and staff are left stressed, over worked and under appreciated. The lack of support from the US side is horrendous, its nothing but pointing fingers & setting unrealistic expectations. When UK corporate visits, issues are promptly swept under the carpet by Corporate US team and managers are told not to say anything. There are a lot of deep rooted issues in the US operation and having a UK mentality, or bringing in a UK head is not going to fix things. they DO NOT invest in their staff and have no problems letting go of people who have worked hard for them for 20+ years! It is safe to say this is not a company that cares about its people. Its not what they did, but how they treated the people they let go. Yes it is a business and changes have to be made if they are not making money. However too many changes from David Reiss himself (the man needs to retire) coupled with the constant changes in the corporate structure have resulted in a negative environment, that has greatly impacted the morale of the staff in all locations in the US. Manager (Current Employee) says "This use to be a good company to work for, many years ago. I would expect behaviour in a workplace like this at a high end brand but not a high street company such as Reiss.NothingBad management, bad organisation and no respect for team" The company dealt with issues in particular with staff in a bad manner and their respect for sales associates is little to none.Ĭan safely say I was not acknowledged in this company and their interest in intelligent fashion forward people is minimal. Managers were unprofessional, bringing constant personal issues into work leaving myself or other team members picking up their work. The company itself leaves no room for progression for staff members with many extremely unhappy with either their position or the way they are treated.Īppearance and personal remarks were on a daily basis, questioning as to why they hired me when I was being moulded into 'the English blonde Reiss ideal'.įavouritism was evident across the team with certain members facing no discipline for repeated lateness or uniform whilst others were subjected to recorded conversations.
Sales Associate (Former Employee) says "I worked within the Selfridges concession of Reiss and endured a year long battle with the poor motivation, bad management and draining hours.
