Low pay, few opportunities, unpleasant work environment - Former Corporate employee - Anonymous employee Chanel Employee Review

Pay was embarrassingly low. All of the perks in the world could not make up for the awful salary for me. This is unacceptable, and other places, as I have learned, pay much more. A pat on the back only goes so far. Toxic office politics and very gossipy environment. Some of the long-haul employees act with impunity and engage in toxic behaviors that go unchecked. I felt like it was worse than high school and not limited to my department. I always felt short staffed, and the company would seemingly rather squeeze its employees more than hire more people. There is almost no room for growth and I felt there was a lot of phony advocacy and empty promises from leadership and upper management. Maternity leave option is adequate but not as good as other places imo.
