TERRIBLE CULTURE - Designer Thom Browne Employee Review

Due to disorganized and uninspired management, the majority of work falls largely on the shoulders of assistant and associate designers, with little help from senior designers or directors. Working long hours and on vacations and weekends is anticipated. Communication breakdowns among team members and throughout the firm. Human Resources is unresponsive and dismissive. Below market salary with no opportunities for promotions, increase your bonus, or compensation. Even when we have to work extra hours, holidays are always  Uniform are required at the office while flying if traveling, and on trips, where they don't cover dry cleaning unless you travel for more than 7 days. In the heat, be prepared to stroll in a heavy-weight uniform. The uniform is part of the compensation package, although it is usually late. The workplace culture here is fast to hire from outside the company, but receiving a promotion and a raise if you're already working there and doing the job is extremely tough. As a result, there is a lot of movement. Overall, awful work atmosphere and culture. The tone is set by managers. The space is crowded, and there is no designated space or table for the lunch break. The building is under construction, so expect to hear loud drilling virtually every day. There have been complaints about rats. The workplace is one block from a methadone treatment center, and the neighborhood is teeming with heroin users.
