Pros

The luxury band was classy. I felt good about the product. Many of the team's members (stores) were really wonderful people and always smiling.

Cons

Revolving door! Some of that was due to the nature of retail, but much (especially that of mgt and back office) must be attributed to the poor treatment of people by HR and their "clicky" dynamic. It usurped much of what was good about the brand. Little focus was placed on non-revenue producing departments, keeping them so lean members had to work unreasonable hours just to get the job done. Flaccid department heads were too afraid to speak up for their employees.
