Pros

Good benefits, awesome space, and perks.

Cons

Kendra Scott is supposed to be known for creating and maintaining an atmosphere of collaboration and treating each other like family. I have found it to be anything but friendly. The person whose place I was taking, because he is transitioning to another department, is downright mean. Almost to the point where I have wanted to leave. The management of my department is lacking management skills which is creating quite the hostile environment. Disappointed.

Pros

Flexability, entry level managment learning, hands on sales. Wonderful work environment and has the most supportive team ever.

Cons

Doesn't make the most money in the world. Also, it is very hard to get fired (which can be a pro) but that means that even when some employees aren't doing their job well or are breaking rules, it is a very gray area.

Pros

Decent work autonomy. Great for a person who wants something that gives back. I know the philanthropic element is also a tax write off but it does feel fulfilling to go to the events and give back. I could have seen myself here longer but the leader I worked under made it kind of difficult. There is room for real growth though and I liked that. Maybe one day I’ll go back?

Cons

Whether you enjoy your time here or not really depends on who your district manager and store manager are. My district manager was a bit challenging to read and didn’t really take initiative when there were issues within our store. It was sad because I saw more than one other person experience bullying from an events manager who came in from another store. I left because after I reported the bullying that I saw to my manager, she was silent about it and didn’t do anything. I didn’t feel like she had her teams best interest. That just doesn’t cut it when you’re leading people who count on you. It was sad overall. I learned that they rewarded this behavior by transferring this person to another store in the South with a promotion. It’s a disappointing situation. Glad i left this district but maybe it’s better in other districts.
