Was very productive
Warehouse operative (Former Employee), Barking – March 25, 2013
Pros: the satisfaction of achieving.
Cons: it could be long hours depending on the orders.
I learned how to use computers on a data basis daily, how to do a special delivery on urgent customers, I improved in daily tasks on stock control and hand held scanners, talking and sending emails to customers. My co-workers were friendly and understanding. The hardest part of job was learning how to get an order done in a minimal time span and eventually – more... I got it within a month of doing. The part I enjoyed the most was when I succeeded in the daily tasks that were given and I achieve them. – less

management at store level and corperate level plays favorites especially when promoting to higher levels.
management (Current Employee), Illinois – September 7, 2012
Pros: good health benifits are good
Cons: everything else
The company as a whole has gone in the direction of wanting only people who fit the super model image they portray in their European Runway Shows. You will be called fat by upper management and told to lose weight if you are over a size 4. Hard work and dedication is never rewarded no matter how long you work there.
I would not recommend this company – more... at all. Not enough pay for all the stress. If you are doing good on your sales goals, instead of complementing you, regional management will ask why you don't do that good all the time and tell you to use that as a building tool to do better. If you are not making goal, they threaten to fire your entire staff while saying they don't know how to sell the product properly. – less

Good Company
Brit Specialist (Current Employee), Boston, MA – July 24, 2012
Pros: good vacation and benefits
Cons: store is not properly staffed when vacation time is requested
The days are very long and the store itself is very much understaffed. Co-workers are very goal driven but sometimes management is not there to properly propel associate towards ultimate success. Corporate needs to inquire insight about specific locations rather than lump them all together, especially flagships since they make the most money. The most – more... enjoyable part of the job is creating that loyal customer that comes in to see you and only you. – less

My typical day at work consist of Sales, maintaining sales floor, Restocking, Operations, Education on product and the history of the company. Management is easy going and friendly.

Great working enviroment
Service Lead & Digital Advisor (Current Employee), Boston, MA – June 21, 2012
Pros: opportunities, discount, benefits, stocks
Cons: pay
Burberry is a wonderful luxury retailer to work for. There is great room for growth and it does not take long. The company loves to promote from within.

Some days can be slow like any retail business. The pay is decent, I feel like they could offer more but with commission it can balance out

Productive Workplace
Sales Lead (Current Employee), miami, fl – April 12, 2012
A typical day would be to write your thank you notes and call your client to invite them to the store whilst setting appointments. Time management is important because you must do the above while still assisting incoming clients to the store. I have learned how to better communicate to a client through the Burberry Experience. The management is good. – more... We work together as a team so better ourselves and our skills so that we may further communicate well with the person coming to shop with us. There isn't really anything challenging about the job. The most enjoyable part of the job is the interaction with the clients. Their Travels and experience due to the fact that we get alot of tourist. – less
