Pros

uno de 50 offers very good health and dental insurance for their store managers, the schedule can be ok only if your store is fully staffed.

Cons

I would not recommend this horrible company to anyone, not even my worst enemy. There are so many cons with this company, they are firing manager associates and district manager left and right. the salary they pay for a SM is a joke for the amount of stress and responsibility. they have no respect for your personal life, it is expected from you as a manager to work 24/7 but regardless of your hard work and commitment still you will get fired. their stores make no profit, and their only business strategy is to blame managers for the bad business they have. the jewelry is poor quality and most probably made in china, but we have to lie to our customers and say it is handcrafted in Spain. this company has the worst upper management and the HR department is a joke, the most unprofessional HR department. it is sad that people with no work ethics work as HR.

Pros

I’ve been working for this company for about 2 years and what I can say is that you will learn a lot from people who are passionate about growth. Your own professional development and growing the business. I’ve worked in luxury retail in the Miami market a long time, and I learned even more about the business, visual merchandising, and being overall a more well rounded leader. Corporate cares about developing their people and I have personally seen 5 Store Managers get promoted to Area Manager this year. Leadership accountability is there but you are rewarded when you have strong results and they are always there to support you. Discount is amazing and the special events that are thrown in store are always amazing!!

Cons

None. This is a great company to work for!

Pros

Good benefits, but you ultimately end up paying a bunch out of pocket anyway for prescriptions and co-pay.

Cons

Where do I start? -My boss verbally harassed me and my employees and undermined our intelligence constantly. I know of at least 3 managers that have quit working under him, but he loves the power so there are a bunch that were fired due to them not being a "Yes Man." He would yell at me and was not very professional. He was also promoted to take over two regions..... Says a lot. -Upper management tries to play itself off as a new company when it's not. It's been around for 20 years with 30 stores in the US. There's nothing new about it. The fact that it still runs as a startup after 20 years was very scary. The name isn't even theirs. They bought the name from a store that was around a long time ago. This company prides itself on being Bold, Unique, and Creative.... with an unoriginal name. -You will constantly be threatened about the security of your job. -They WILL control your appearance. My boss told one of my employees that she needs to not have her head shaved by Monday..... it was Friday. You have to wear the worst uniform to make you look like a Cater Waiter. You are forced to wear red lipstick if you are a girl. You have to have bare nails, but if you want a color it has to be red. You are only allowed to wear black laces up brogues or black loafers. It's absolutely tacky. -The company does not take any responsibility for anything done on their end. If packages you receive end up damaged, it's your fault. Not the company who, ultimately ended up packaging it. That is just one example of the many. -All of the reviews that you have read about this place are very true. It sucks, but that's the way it is. It looks like a great company from the outside, but unfortunately it's not that way when actually working there. Do yourself a favor and save some of the stress, if you want to work retail, do it literally anywhere else.
