Low Quality, Unprofessional, and Discriminatory Employer - Art Department Lifetime Brands Employee Review

Pros

Good for an intern but that's it.

Cons

Pay and compensation package isn't competitive. Art department lies to new hires about job responsibilities and compensation packages. Management presents "new opportunities" to employees leading them to believe that it's a path to promotion. Even when you prove yourself you won't be promoted but management will expect you to continue to work outside your pay grade. This is manipulative, unethical, and an unprofessional tactic that's used often. Some artists are given many projects to work on while others work on a few and spend most of the time texting on their phones or gossiping about other coworkers. The only reason some employees have worked there for many years is because they fall prey to staying where they're comfortable instead of looking for another place to work. They become lazy with their careers. This is common among employees in general and companies like Lifetime Brands will use it to take advantage of you. They will never compensate you fairly, competitively, and raises are laughable.

Pros

The job involves wearing many hats, making the daily tasks diverse and engaging. A great place to develop strong skills in cross-functional communication, acting as the critical middleman between Sales, Marketing, and Operations.

Cons

Sadly, the compensation for this role is significantly below the industry standard for a Category or Product Manager with comparable responsibilities. There is no room to grow beyond a certain point, and there seems to be a lack of awareness of the efforts and quality of work that middle roles, such as a category manager, provide. Most of the grace goes to the salespeople who typically receive all of the information from people in our position. With the increasing lack of value placed on this role, there has been a slow decline in output due to unrealistic expectations paired with thankless and minimal rewards. People have left, been let go, and those left are burning out.
