Pros

Some nice people (not in management though). Ok benefits- 18 PTO days and 401K match, good health insurance.

Cons

This company is stuck in the past! They don’t value you as an employee. If you have an emergency, like you’re in the hospital, get ready to deduct PTO. Doctor’s appointment? Deduct PTO. Hurricane damaged your house? Deduct PTO. There is no compassion whatsoever. If you have a family, this company sees work as your top priority and family as the bottom one. Some departments have a hard time getting vacation approved by their supervisor because of all the turnover leaving no one to be a backup if you take vacation. Micromanagement in many departments; managers take all credit for their employees work. The energy is awful and employees walk around looking unhappy. If you try to have a friendly conversation with someone that’s not work related outside of lunch hours, you’ll get dirty looks. And HR is a joke... if you complain about your boss mistreating you, YOU will be fired. This place runs like a dictatorship; no one has a voice and everyone is afraid to speak up in fear of losing their job.

Pros

Company invests in its training program. Being a brand ambassador is easy when you have the technical training to represent such amazing product.

Cons

Not a lot of room for growth at the store level.

Pros

The management of the company on a retail, regional and corporate level provides rich material for a comedian or a management consultant. I have worked for some troubled companies but Swatch is in a class of its own.

Cons

Swatch is a poorly organized company. The quality of management is unbelievably bad. The people in charge of promotional events finished strong as the biggest joke in the Swatch organization. I would never return to Swatch. Pay and benefits are are rock bottom.
