Bergdorf Goodman reviews

Where do I even begin... -Management is horrible across the board, but especially on the ecommerce team. You will not get any kind of support from anyone. There is no room for growth on the team, don't be fooled when you interview and HR says "you can definitely move around in the company", they're lying to your face. -Manager will talk down to you, speak to you like you're 5 years old, micromanage every second of every minute that you are on the clock (will make you clock out if you go downstairs to buy a coffee). You will NOT find mentorship on the omni team. Do not care about you or your life outside of work. Does not even know or care if it's someone's birthday on the team. Have a extremely urgent family matter? Good luck taking off. -Turnover is unreal. People start looking for other opportunities as soon as they realize that this job is a joke. Don't be fooled by the glitz and glam of "Bergdorf Goodman", you'll probably make more money working on sales commission at any store on Madison/5th ave. Or even at a coffee shop, at least you won't be miserable. -Speaking of pay, pay is so low compared to industry standards. The company knows they can get away with it because they're ~Bergdorf Goodman~. It is not enough to survive in NYC. -NOTHING is given to you in writing, You are not given an "offer letter" or a "benefits package" like normal companies, benefits are nonexistent. You get vacation and sick HOURS, not DAYS. -HR is so pathetic, they do NOTHING all day. The male in HR will patrol the halls and will HOLLER at you from across the room if you have rips in your jeans, but do not work on sourcing ACTUAL SMART AND QUALIFIED PEOPLE for these positions. HR will do nothing when someone is reported to them on multiple occasions.

Long hours, poor treatment from direct management, unrealistic expectations, no real training, your mental health will decline rapidly, within the first few months I had to go on medication to help control it. No work life balance. You're basically expected to be on call all the time and answer your chats and emails at any hour of the day otherwise it looks like you don't care enough and will be frowned upon. Additionally if you work overtime (which you will all the time) you will not be compensated for it. No culture. No happy hours, team bonding or anything to make you feel like a human outside of your job. Work space is horrible and a joke if you go you probably won't even have a monitor to work on. I literally cannot hear the words Bergdorf Goodman or walk in that general area without having extreme PTSD and becoming extremely anxious even though I have now left and have a healthy job. Especially if you are just starting out in your career, do NOT do this to yourself. The name is not worth it I promise you. Nothing you will get from this job will be worth how you feel at the end and start of each day simply just from working here.
