David's Bridal reviews

- the company falsely advertises their appointment times (such as advertising 90 minute appointments when in reality, the bride gets 60 and is not supposed to go over) and this causes upset brides. - the sales methods that are expected out of the stylists are asinine. They take sales methods too far and almost force brides into dresses above budget and then throw discounts at them and pressure them. It's literally in their training advice that if a bride is above budget, then you need to do everything in your power to bully them into that dress. Not to mention, that 7 day return policy assures that those people cannot change their minds. - The customers are degrading and obnoxious often. The customer should be right, however, a store full of entitled women with impossible demands makes it hard to think so. I was often talked poorly to over the lack of inventory and other negligence's of Management and receiving. - Commission scale is a mess. If you do not meet the standard to increase your hourly pay during that pay period, any other sales are not factored in. - required to sell "head to toe" but the company keeps horrible stock of undergarments and like things in stores. - sample dresses are in horrible condition - Have known someone that was cornered and bullied by coworkers - including a member of management

Upper management doesn’t understand the needs of the market, and when you tell them it falls on deaf ears. booking 2 to 1 appointments gets overwhelming and old fast when you never have a time to take a break, and if 1 person calls out your literally screwed They try to have routine schedules, but it always gets changed and it’s not fault of the store manager it’s the fault of the business allowing people to book so many appointments. They just say you need to have more people available to help. It’s all metric based. Doesn’t matter that you are a good manager.. if you don’t make your metrics they coach you out and move on to the next sucker that accepts. Don’t sell your soul to a company that literally doesn’t care about you.
