Serena & Lily Reviews

Pros

Decent benefits like healthcare and some perks like paid breakfast for meetings and fun events (this was pre-covid). Able to take vacation without feeling stressed out with work.

Cons

Needs to pay their employees a competitive wage that aligns with the cost of living in their city. Toxic workplace environment, especially in a small retail setting where there isn't space for employees to have distance from each other. Manager plays favoritism and ignores the pleas and constructive feedback from employees about a particular bad employee that is disrespectful and rude to everyone else because they are friends. Relatively high turnover rate because of this toxic environment (from playing favoritism and allowing one bad apple to stay) and poor management (and bad hiring). Also not a lot of diversity in the company in general, usually all caucasian women, but I guess that makes sense with what they are selling and who they are catering to.

Pros

I enjoy going to work everyday. I love what I do, our customers, my colleagues and my team. Work/life balance is supported versus a climate of working 24/7/365. You feel like a valued team member as a result. Feedback is encouraged and solution-driven. When you have past work experiences in unfavorable conditions, you understand all this company has to offer.

Cons

None that I can think of

Pros

Great benefits for employees & strong leadership

Cons

Trending towards heavy retail-style management

Pros

Good insurance benefits, good discount Some nice work mates

Cons

No life work balance! Corporate does Not care about you. Lots of Mean spiteful backstabbing. Not enough time off. Big time burn out So many shipping issues and problems, constant drama

Pros

Some beautiful product and original art .

Cons

Corporate management is very clique ish ....no room to move up . Pressure to sell. No creativity . tons of management turnover .

Pros

No employer is perfect, but this one comes close. Pay and benefits are above average. Health insurance is fully paid for by S & L. Who does that anymore? The hours are great and management , Michael and Jaime, are supportive and helpful. There's a great spirit of teamwork and cooperation among the Design Advisors. Needless to say, the product is beautiful and more or less sells itself.

Cons

With inflation at almost 10%, it would be nice to hear that a pay increase is at least under consideration.

Pros

Remote work opportunities with amazing benefits and competitive starting wage! The support and help is always just a quick msg away with just as quick a response!

Cons

Does not matter what your role is, someone lower with less responsibility can be making more than you.

Pros

working from home, benefits are awesome, PTO actúes quickly, 50% off employee discount, coworkers are your primary resources.

Cons

no OT, Company behaves like it’s a start up, slow to make structure, management need leadership training, everyone is spread really thin, hard to request time off with so many black out dates.

Pros

The company is growing incredibly quickly because the culture respects experimentation and challenges to the status quo. In my experience, ideas from people at all levels of the organization are valued which makes the day-to-day feel collaborative and fun. In my experience, employees have a high level of autonomy and are constantly solving new problems. Due to this, the company seems to best suit people that are excited about having their role transform as the company grows and that thrive when held accountable and given meaningful responsibility.

Cons

Before the new CEO was installed, the company lacked a clear leader. Lack of leadership stalled critical investments in growth and keeping the company's foundation healthy and created a layer of management that was incredibly weak. Since the new CEO came on, more long-term investments have been prioritized and most of the leadership was replaced which has made the work environment great. The company could still improve internal communication from the c-suite to the rest of the organization regarding key priorities and the mission/vision.

Pros

PTO/health benefits/that is about it

Cons

The lack of diversity is startling. You will only move up in the company if the SVP likes you and you fit the mold of 20/30 something Caucasian female. Your experience means nothing. The CEO sits back and allows this inequality to happen. The pay increases are insulting. No care for hardworking and long term employees.
