RecommendsNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Crabtree & Evelyn part-time for more than a year
Pros
A really relaxed work environment, that was actually customer focused. The small store team allows for individuals to quickly learn retail skills and take on responsibilities that will to good when searching for new employment.
Cons
The company was a mess, little organisation with products being out of stock for months. The customers could be very demanding but not to bad

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI have been working at Crabtree & Evelyn full-time for more than 5 years
Pros
People at this company are great. HR really makes an effort to provide a nice work environment. Best effort is always put forward by employees, great teamwork.
Cons
Don’t expect any job security at all, layoffs are quite common. Firing and rehiring for the same position shortly thereafter is also common. Because of this the atmosphere is quite stressful and there is a lot of anxiety in the workplace.

RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI have been working at Crabtree & Evelyn part-time for more than a year
Pros
Flexible hours, wonderful coworkers, clean and safe working environment. Decent pay for a side job (a little under 10/hour). Not physically demanding, which is a huge plus for someone with back issues like me. One of the nicest-smelling places I've ever worked.
Cons
When slideshows on new products are sent out, they are often filled with spelling and grammar errors, or are missing pieces. Upper management is not usually responsive when needed, and technology failures are rampant.
Continue readingThank you for your response. We agree that our employees and work environment are true assets to the company. In regard to the slideshows, I encourage you to speak with your Store Manager or District Manager regarding the errors and missing pieces. We most certainly want to provide the retail field the proper information. I am curious to learn more about upper management not be responsive in a timely manner. If you would like to discuss further, I can be reached at jfisher@crabtree-evelyn.com. Thank you.
