Avantages

Great venues to work in every day. People running the company are well-meaning but befuddled.

Inconvénients

The company's streamlining into a more efficient corporation has made its promise to its clients disingenuous. The company gives a lot of lip service to its culture, but it behaves more like a cult. They speak a great deal about work/life balance, but forget the obvious, that life in an office, their central office will be different than life in a store front. The culture in its central planning office is one where all executives are afraid to appear not to belong to the cult, so no one can speak truth to power. There's never any valuable communication from the central organization to the many stores, and great value placed on the appearance of said stores understanding the culture of the central planning office. They love Facebook snapshots that validate their narrative that their culture is so strong. Fundamental structural issues go unchecked. Turnover is really high.

I love working at EN because there is always something new to expand my knowledge of the business and I’ve found it’s a very supportive environment. I’ve always felt supported and appreciated by my bosses at this company. There are always new challenges to creatively solve. I always leave my store feeling a sense of accomplishment.

Inconvénients

Mostly part time for all team members below AD which can make hiring a challenge

I get paid. I like my immediate coworkers

Inconvénients

Horrible communication, upper management does not actually listen to concerns. They'll tell you they're listening but their solutions are always the opposite of what we need or not actually fixed in practice. Purchasing is incompetent, visuals too. Why is a retail job so corporate? Why am I dealing with a very hypocritical (team first but unhelpful to us, planet first but waste plastic constantly and love AI, integrity but go back on their word, store quality but can't actually listen to what stores need) corporate management doing FUNdamentals and weekly synergy meetings just to sell dumb tshirts to tourists? They're in way over their heads and keep buying more and more businesses to expand when they can't even handle the ones they have. I literally only still work here because of how bad the job market is but I've hated every second of it and have been actively looking for other jobs for over a year
