lovisa Employee Review

Coworkers and Customers were lovely, Management not so much.

I worked there for around 8 months, in that time we went through 4 different regional managers with no store manager until my last couple months there. The girls I worked with were amazing, even the store manager that got hired was amazing. The managing techniques used however, were purely fear based “If you don’t complete these 10 different jobs in your one 3 hour shift, we’ll need to have a discussion” and if you didn’t meet their expectations they would silently cut down your hours, how many hours you get a week are “performance based” and sometimes depending on if your regional likes you or not.

Pros

Great Team, Discounts

Cons

Horrible Management Skills

No

worst job I ever worked for. The management team sucked and the managers treat their staff with so much disrespect. But the managers are never wrong so it’s always the “team members fault”. I was so miserable working for this company and the work they expect you to do during sale time is 30x the amount one person can handle. Also to mention Christmas time we all had to work on Christmas Eve till past 10:30pm setting up Boxing Day sales with no penalty rates

Not good enough

I have been working for Lovisa for quite some time and I love it. However, it is very stressful as there is a lot of pressure from upper management. The pay is also not very good as you get paid according to your age .

productive and fun place to work with amazing team members

working at lovisa has been an overall positive experience for myself personally. the team members are all very welcoming and work well together. though there are many pros, there are cons aswell that you should make yourself aware of, i.e. working by yourself late nights and weekends in peak hours.

Pros

free dress (aslong as it follows certain dress code) retail experience

Cons

low pay, not enough hours a week
