Pros

- Great product, innovative. - Reasonable prices on product. - Nice employee discount. - Two free watches upon hire, keep watches after 30 days.

Cons

- Senior Management rules by fear. - Little to no training provided. - Archaic system is clunky and out dated. - Employees are treated like a burden instead of an asset. - Threats made daily on your job, from regular employees to the Store Manager.

Pros

They constantly serve food for events and visitors. Pay is okay if your Asian or from Switzerland.

Cons

No room for advancement, low increase after two years, no promotion unless your a favorite. Poor management, good workers get overlooked if not part of the click. Poor communication. Different rules apply for different teams and managers. Company has no structure. Huge turn over! Can't keep employees and HR is all over the place. Get spoken to as if your stupid with lack of proper training. Don't know they're own rules . They have no job descriptions so you do everything or some do nothing at all but get promoted. They say we promote from within but only if your a favorite or part of the click. Don't waste you time. Payroll manager is nasty and rude when you ask a question. Everyone is afraid to approach her. Switzerland is controlling and have no clue what there are doing. They don't come to the US but fire people only to replace them with there own.

Pros

Good benefits. Free watches. Great product.

Cons

The DM's are mis-guided and that information is processed down to the store level. There is no balance for the corporate office since they are guided by Switzerland and doesn't understand the US market.
