Pros

There are many great leaders in the organization. The pay and bonus structure is fair. They are supportive from a payroll perspective.

Cons

If you have HR issues don't worry about calling the HR hotline. They listen to your concern and tell you that there is a zero retaliation policy. Well, I know first hand that this is NOT the case. After calling on the DM about not showing up for work, violating dress code issues, sharing private information with other employees, nothing was done. The DM became very hateful and disrespectful towards me and my management team. I even sent a letter to Senior Management and HR before I left, again asking them to resolve the issue and support their zero retaliation policy. Again, nothing was done. I went as far as giving very specific examples of when, where and who to contact to confirm the incidents. So, if you want to work for a company where HR issues are "brushed under the carpet" and policies are not adhered to, then Coach is your Company. I was with the Company for 5.5 years and they chose to listen to an habitual liar over a tenure trusted employee. Very sad.

Pros

- fast paced days with lots of client interaction and team building moments - fun product dropped monthly with opportunities to be the first to own popular drops - opportunities to grow* - a great starting place to learn how to provide an elevated shopping experience and learn how to build a client book

Cons

- * Opportunities to grow only present themselves if you have a positive relationship with the management team and/or the DM - Corporate tends to lead on candidates and promise advancements or change verbally but little is done to correct behavior or advance within the company - Your store manager will determine whether the team is harmonious and fair, can be a double edged sword - you will be asked to do tasks or take on projects outside of your position with no additional compensation. It will be heavily frowned upon to decline said opportunities and tended to lead to being denied advancements - during ICE activities in the city, Coach refused to make a statement and or provide guidelines to how we as a store should respond. Associates were punished for absences related back to ICE activities
