- The co-founders (husband and wife) choose or approve every image, landing page, marketing communication, sku, sku’s cost, product description page, email and retail price. Every single product is chosen by the CEO, and the retail price is decided by the CEO. It's very inefficient, extremely demotivating and is the epitome of micromanagement. We are a team of people executing the CEO's orders.
- The technology at this company is the worst I have ever worked in. There is an intention to be at the forefront of technology, but that is not even visible on the horizon yet.
- We are now required to have our camera on for all meetings.
- Many blame-focused emails/slacks from the co-founders with many people on copy, with an underlying tone that you may be fired, which is often true. Public ridicule and blame happens often.
- The turnover is extremely high. Many employees leave after 2-3 months, and most leave within a year.
- PTO requests are often rejected, you get 2 weeks per year. Do not fall for the fake reviews here that say that there is unlimited PTO, just ask anyone who works here if they or their teammates have had their PTO requests rejected.
- Bonus metrics are set unrealistically high. If considering an offer, assume your bonus will be $0.
- There are no designers at Quince. All product is a direct copy. We now market under the hashtag: #dupes.
- Relationships with agencies and vendors are extremely strained, we pay late and invoices are often rejected multiple times.
- If considering a future with Quince, find someone on LinkedIn that has left the company in your function, there are many that will be willing to share their experiences.
- I honestly was not going to bother posting anything, but the fake positive reviews here made me feel that I had no choice but to do my part in setting realistic expectations for people considering a role here.
