The 10 Best Fashion Retailers To Work For
Associated PressRetail companies are often criticized for paying low wages, requiring long hours, and offering too few opportunities for full-time employment.
So we set out to find the companies - specifically in fashion retail - where employees love coming to work every day.
We asked Glassdoor.com to help us review hundreds of employee ratings to identify the best companies.
The most common benefit that the happiest of employees cited was deep discounts on store merchandise, including 50% off at Brooks Brothers and 30% off at J. Crew. Other perks that employees praised included tuition reimbursement, flexible hours, "great people," good customers, and "thousands of dollars worth of free products."
But even the best companies have unhappy employees. We've included both positive and negative reviews for each company in the ranking. Complaints included long hours, the stress of prom season (Men's Wearhouse) and the cost of adhering to dress code standards (J. Crew).
For the purposes of the report, we included companies with U.S. store locations that had received at least 25 employee reviews in the past year. The company ratings are based on a 5-point scale, with "1" being very dissatisfied and "5" being very satisfied.
