Pros

Employee discount is 25% off. Oh and the benefits are definitely top tier, the only reason why I stayed so long.

Cons

H&M used to be a place for growth. It’s now turned into an every many for himself type of environment. They no longer believe in growth and would rather look externally to fill higher positions. At least five of my coworkers all quit within the same year and were all with the company for over 10 years. The area team only cares about themselves and profit. They definitely do not care about their people. Oh and the schedule… don’t ever have a family emergency because there’s no one to cover you. You will be a slave to that place until you quit. I got written up once because I had an emergency with my son and left 15 minutes early. FIFTEEN MINUTES! I’d rather stand in the unemployment line then EVER go back to that place.

Pros

Job had potential growth when company was in a healthy state, ability to move into different career paths internally, pay is competitive, discounts on clothes a plus

Cons

Company lacks ability to adapt and evolve with market which has resulted in poor sales, mass layoffs, constant restructuring of positions, putting people in positions with limitedexperience and setting them up for failure consistently, poor leadership, lack of accountability and ownership, bonus structure poor, work life balance non existent if you are in an operations role.
