Cole Haan Employer Reviews

The best part of my job is welcoming new employees and training them about the Cole Haan brand.

1) A typical day is usually quiet but full of small tasks distributed throughout the day.
2) I learned critical leadership and operational skills.
3) The management team is small but we get things done.
4) The team is small so we are all like family.
5) Seeing the team members complain about the lack of sales from lack of traffic.
6) Working together – more... to tackle any projects or sales for the store. – less

Great company. It is all about the job, the company, and the people!

Cole Haan and Nike are world class brands and it is fun to be part of the team.

A typical day at work we would help customers in need. Clean up store the end of the night.
awesome co-workers. Very positive attitudes.
Management is very well organized

-Working with re purposed animal skins can be fun....
The employees are treated well and generous benefits were provided.
When the owning body was Nike I worked with from; 06-08/09-09.
-The company enabled employees the ability to develop interpersonal relationships with clients, who for some ; often turned into friendships.
-Working in Bridgeport has – more... its advantages and with the array of shopping and food options available, it is often necessary I found on Lunch or Break to seek out the nature close by to break away from the ever present stimuli of fun seekers with their consumer needs.
-This work environment is suitable for anyone who can separate work and free time sufficiently, because as a full time employee you will spend a good amount of your life in a confined space around the size of a large convenient store.
-Working with primary female associates enabled me the ability to grow as a manager and take on a new perspective of the business world through new management styles and relationship building techniques. – less

This was a great job for what it was. Schedule was good, pay was adequate, and environment was great. The only drawback was that advancement seemed to be a beauty contest.

There could be a time period in which days would be identical as far as workload, but there were always unexpected days where time would fly by. I learned how to work independently and with a team, and I was given the oppurtunity to lead as well. The management from top to bottom is very caring and professional. The hardest part of the job was adjusting – more... to the slow periods. The most enjoyable part of the job is the customer satisfaction. – less

Cole Haan is a fun, energetic company with great shoes! The shoes have Nike Air technology... Typical day is opening or closing the store. I prepare work schedules, do visual merchandising, clienteling of customers.

A typical work day is working with customers, to support their needs. The managment team has changed several times over the past year. The corporation was recently purchased by a new company, and a lot of changes have happened. Ive learned how to work under pressure. Working at Woodbury Commons can be a stressful enviorment. I have learn the Business – more... Acumen. The hardest part of working at Cole Haan is the hours. Our hours are not steady, or consistant. I never can rely on hours or a steady paycheck. The most enjoyable part of my job is helping the customers. Being about to help them find exactly what they are looking for, and them leaving wth a smile on their face. – less

Not my ideal work environment. the management was inexperienced and the environment was hostile for most of my work perioads.

Some days were extremely slow. There was always some promotion going on.

a typical day at work for me was very fast paced and providing customers with footwear that best fit there everyday life. i learned a great deal about shoes with my time at cole haan witch shoes fit best etc. the most enjoyable part of my job was providing customers shoes that best fit them. customers satisfaction truly bring me joy.

Holiday hire, amazing job! Management was amazing at helping me lean the ropes.
They kept coming into work fun. Was so sad when the holiday season was over

Great place to apply previous sales skills learned. Broad exposure to customers from around the globe

A typical day would include cleanign stocking and customer service as well as the register and capturing our goaled matrix caputre rate.

Working side by side and literally learning something new everyday. The clients that come into our store to shop are phenomenal and each client feels like you're reading another book. Spending, usually, hours with each client as they shop, we talk, exchange stories, and create and communicate in rapport and establish a close knit relationship.

Support Store Manager in the implementation of strategic initiatives and achievement of goals and objectives with a primary focus on all accountability of Revenue Generation, Establishing the store selling and service culture, Operational Excellence, Product & Visual Merchandising and Management of Human Resources/ Creating Team Success. Reducing Inventory – more... shrink from 4% to 1.2% in 1 yr.. – less

Its not a bad place to work could be a little more organized with store managers and employees

Open the store with one of the managers on team, prepare the floor for customers by cleaning the facility, inventory count and restock products. Have a sit down with manager for five to ten minutes and go over daily sales goals for myself, our store and our regional goals for the day.
Everyday in retail you learn something new and that is the fascinating – more... thing about it, no day is the same. I enjoy my coworkers, especially the one's who like myself have been there since the opening of the store. We are like a family at work and that makes teamwork that much better. it also makes it that much more exciting to go to work everyday when you care about and know the people you work with.
The hardest part of the job for me at this point is Average item per transaction, so getting the client to purchase more than one ro two items at a time.
The most enjoyable part of it is the team we have as well as the clients we are able to please on a daily basis with our affordable priced product. no one feels as if they are not able to purchase something at our stroe and the the price is within the lifestyle and price range. – less

I processed incoming/outgoing stock and maintained stockroom to specific standards to make easy to find needed items.
