New York & Company Employer Reviews

IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO WORK AS A SECOND JOB BUT THEY DON'T PAY MUCH AND HOURS CAN BE LOW AS 8PER WEEK. NO ROOM TO GROW. MANAGEMENT IS SET

I would be informed of how sales were going and what our goals were for the day and would try to set those goals. I learned a lot with this company

I worked for this company for about 2 years and I loved it! It's low pay, but hey, it's retail. The company is very fair with promotions from within and the company as a whole is well run. They give decent discounts to employees. If you're looking for a good part time job that treats employees well and is a good environment, this is your company!

Typical day of work is very faced-paced. I learned all areas of management. Co-workers work with each other to accomplish company goals. Most challenging part of the job was the commute to get to work. The most enjoyable part of my job was working with a great staff and boss.

Working at New York & Company was always a positive experience. Employees were always happy to see one another and management was very supportive. I left this company considering my coworkers more like family members and friends.

A typical work day was either putting things on sale, getting ready for a big promotion. Bringing out new items to the sales floor and prepare the store to open.

A typical day would consist giving the associates the daily statistics of the company and store sales reports, assigning each associate a duty for the day, and giving excellent service to each customer. I really learned how to become a better manager and how to do human resource functions. My co-workers were fun and energetic.

Normally ran the cash register up front, but if not, I was busy assisting customers, checking fitting rooms and pricing items.

New York and Company is a retail store that maintains high customer traffic. The company is task oriented and committed to meeting each goal of the day, week, and month. All employees execute company policies in daily work routines to the best of their ability. Great communication between associates and managment. Effective training on cash handling – more...  and customer conclicts. The Company offers great customer service relations between associates and customers. – less

Worked for them for 5 years and then they shut down all of the stores in my area.

A good company with room for growth. Being able to get Your ideas out and having Your voice heard within the company. The store team works and operates like a family. Management that always works to help and improve their associates.

Basic retail job. Managers often immature and power hungry. Despite that, I really enjoyed working for this company.

I was always looking forward to get into work, I gained a lot of knowledge in the business industry. I began as an associate, with my dedication and demonstration of fast learner and with the ability to gain challenging task, three month on working with the company, my store manager promoted me to become a manager. Being in this position have introduced – more...  me to the responsibility handling a business and becoming a role model to the associates. The co workers and myself always stuck together as a team, never letting anything conflict with our focus on making the business successful. Enjoying my position and focusing on my goal to make the business successful, along with other managers, no task became difficult for me to handle. I will always appreciate everything that the company have taught me. – less

The store keeps a steady group of customers coming into the store which occupies our time as well as other task. I have learned to deal with different people and situations in a professional manner. The hardest part of my job is keeping up with task when we are short staffed. The most enjoyable part of my job is providing my customers with great customer – more...  service and being able to fulfill their request and needs. – less

Good company to work for. Managers are nice but not enough hours. Also depends which location you work at. Managers sometimes don't listen especially where I work at , the line could be to the door and she won't add a cashier until people start complaining . There are no hours and they can't hire new people, but expect one person to do three or more – more...  things at a time. But the coworkers are cool. Only thing they call out too much. – less

Each day was something new, customers were always there to make the day. Some experiences were better then others but either way you learn from each experience. Management was always great and knew what needed to get done to make everyone's lives slightly easier. Co-workers are always there to help each other. Hardest part was trying to get everything – more...  done and helping customers at same time, but usually everything was done. Most enjoyable part was just meeting all the different people and hearing their stories when they wanted to share. – less

I really enjoy this job. Not a career for me. Great management!! Hardest part of job is closing the store becomes a mess by the end of the day.

I had an issue with when customers would enter the store, we would be like an animal waiting for their prey. I had a problem with this as I would rather ASSIST customers in finding what they were looking for rather than PUSH something that they had no interest in. I had the highest sales in this store because of how I treated my customers. I greeted – more...  them and let them know if they needed assistance, I would be there to help them.

The most enjoyable part of my job were the customers. – less

A typical day can vary depending how the weather is outside. If the weather is nice and sunny we are going to very busy in the store. I've learned to do returns, how to size up the merchandise, the proper way to fold the clothes, and to run the register. There is two full time managers and two part time managers so you are never alone in the store by – more...  yourself. There is at least a handful of younger girls that work here at the outlet store. Being nice to rude people, who don't care if clothes fall on the floor and then don't pick them up. I get to work with some geat people and get a really good discount on clothes that I can wear anywhere, the beach, work, home. – less

A typical day at work, would be busy. Getting the customers what they need, and trying to help thm to the bet of ou ability. Management is very understandable, and expects the co-workers to work hard.
