Chico's FAS reviews about "coworker"

The pettiness The bad mouthing of current employees or past employees, if the manager was talking about them I am sure she was talking about me Manager gave out her phone number to all employees to contact by text or calls, when I had to text her , her reply back was condescending and not to pleasant. I got an apology the next day. She knew she was wrong She got a bad review because she did not present herself in a positve way when helping a customer, she talked about the previous management I had an upcoming date that I needed off and she knew but she scheduled me for that day anyway I was told there was a review about me apologizing to much? That was a lie, I looked at all the reviews none about me but she had a negative one about her I only apologized to my customers if we did not have a product or we did not fit their expectations Yes I did apologize to some employees, I was in training and learning. Im sure it was the fellow coworkers that complained I do have problems with my right foot and at the moment my nice pair of nikes was providing more comfort to my feet, and was told I needed a drs note? But another employee who his younger was wearing very dirty tennis shoes, not a good look if they a noticably dirty Not good training, barely had any

Pay is not the best

New ownership and acquisition of company left many employees feeling very uncertain about employees futures and job security. New acquisition company seems to have a history of big layoffs and closures online. They seemed to have created way too many changes in a short period of time . I ended up leaving because the work environment is too unstable at this time.

Pay vs. Industry Standards: Current salaries are significantly below market benchmarks. Reduced Benefits: 401(k) match has decreased. Health insurance costs for employees have increased substantially. No Performance Incentives: No bonuses or merit increases. No pay adjustments for taking on additional departments or higher volume. Policy Changes Affecting Flexibility: Unused vacation hours are no longer paid out. Hybrid employees are now required to work 4 days in-office. Hiring Practices: Preference for external hires over internal growth opportunities. Impact: These changes risk lowering engagement and increasing turnover, especially when competitors offer stronger compensation and flexibility.

no commission given to employees

Horrible quality clothes, hours, low pay for more work. Understaffed. Physical and mental work they put you through for not enough pay. Customers will take advantage of store culture.

I worked for Chico's FAS over 13 years and when I left in good standing they wouldn't even pay out 1 weeks worth of earned PTO. It's disheartening to know that the company I worked so hard for doesn't even practice good corporate citizenship. "Due to a recent policy change Chico's will no longer pay out unused PTO unless required by state law." -The response from Corp when I asked them for my earned PTO. The policy as stated sounds alot like: "We only reimburse earned leave if you can make us" ..... Not addressing the merit of paying employees what they earned contributes to a bad reputation for the company. Is Chicos a reputable company and/or a good place to work? Unfortunately, no. Would you recommend family or friends to work or shop there? Also, no. There are undoubtedly many benefits afforded by Chico's to employees at varying levels of the company that having nothing to do with state law in the multi-states they operate. They are provided by the company because it is good business practice. I say all this instead of talking about the stressful environment, no raises for 2 years (not even a cost of living raise), no bonus or commission when you exceed your sales goals, payroll getting slashed, etc. All of these things are difficult to manage while keeping your team uplifted and on track. But I did it, for years. And after giving notice, leaving in good standing, and being told I'd be welcomed back any time-the company won't do the bare minimum of paying out my PTO.
