Very organized, neat and clean work place
Costumer service/ Sales associate (Current Employee), Manhattan, NY – June 10, 2013
Pros: great salary, kind and understanding managment
Cons: long hours
A typical day at work would be to have great costumer service. This includes helping costumers with alterations, helping them find products that they saw online, finding sizes, suggestive selling when we cannot find the items that they want as well as seeing if other Uniqlo stores in the area have the item that they are looking for. The job also included – more... cleaning up the floor which meant tidying areas that were messy, replenishing the floor, which means bringing out items from the stock room that we do not have represented in the store or products that we are low on. My day also required ringing costumers up at the casher register if the line got really long to prevent costumers from waiting on line for a long time.

I learned a lot for this job, like professionalism, how to multitask, how to work the registers, how to work in the stock room, how to do layout changes, and how to work on big projects in groups.

Management was really good. they treated employees very well. they were serious and very organized,because of this a lot got done.

My co-workers are hard-working honest people. we work well together, like a team to get things done in a timely manner.

The hardest part of the job would have to be the layout changes because a lot of work goes into it. As a group, we have to think about color order and where we can find space in the store to put products. This is also fun because you get to experiment with different locations to see how well the product is selling, if it isn't selling well we move it around.

I enjoy everything about this job, mostly working with the costumers and with my co-workers. – less

Great coworkers but sometimes management slacked.
o Customer Advisor/ Retail (Former Employee), New York, NY – May 22, 2013
Pros: break-time
Working on Fifth Avenue in New York was a great experience. I loved my coworkers and I enjoyed what I did. The management, however, was somewhat confusing. They weren't responsible and blamed everyone else.

Fast Pace
Sales Associate (Current Employee), New York, NY – May 18, 2013
It is a very fast pace environment. I am a horrible folder but working at Uniqlo has helped me a lot because they strive on neatness. Over all the management team is really good. They make sure you understand the task that is given to you. I cant really say much about the co workers because at this job I am sort of to myself. I think the hardest part – more... of the job would have to be able to keep up with all the different customers because on a busy day we get tons. But the most enjoyable is meeting all the different people who come to shop. – less

Pros: co-workers, pay
Cons: hours, no variety
The people here are fun to work with just don't expect to move up unless management likes you.
Starting pay is good.
Rules are strict.
They do not listen if you want to do more in order to get promoted.
Lots of folding. Constant folding.

Just horrible and unfair.
Sales Associate (Current Employee), New York, NY – April 29, 2013
Pros: awesome co-associates
Cons: favoritism, overworked, overall poor management, long hours
At first working here was fun. I met some of my best friends here at Uniqlo. But now it seems like all I do is sleep for a few hours, go back to work and start all over again. I feel as though I am overworked and never get recognized for anything I do unless I'm about to be written up. MANAGEMENT PLAYS FAVORITES. You will never move onto something bigger – more... if they don't favorite you. Expectations are ridiculously high and the rules are very strict. Little to no communication with management.

To add, one of my friends did transfer outs there until 4am a few times. Management didn't give her a raise during promotion period so she ended up resigning. – less

Its an okay place
Woman's Floor Sales Associate (Former Employee), 5th Ave 53rd street NY New York – April 9, 2013
Majority of the time your folding clothes or fixing them. your not really allowed to converse with other employees because your told to be at least 10 feet from them but not many people follow it. the co-workers are pretty cool people and fun to talk to. standing up for 8 hours just folding clothes can be tiring and boring so its not a very exciting – more... job and there's allot of rules to it – less

Uniqlo
Sales Associate/Cashier/Customer Service (Former Employee), New York, NY – March 31, 2013
I loved working at Uniqlo everyday. It easily became a second home to me. Everyone was extremely friendly and that made it easy for me to feel comfortable. A typical day would be each associate ringing up about 300 customers per day. I had to deal with customer complaints, questions, and anything else to make the customer feel comfortable. Overall I – more... had a fun experience working at Uniqlo. – less

Welcome to the Westside, UNIQLO.
Sales Associate (Former Employee), San Francisco, CA – March 21, 2013
Pros: free lunch on black friday, good pay, hours worked around school schedule, work seemed fair for what
Cons: overstaffed at time of hiring, fired 90% of store after holiday season
A typical work day involved me usually straightening clothes that were on the sales floor, preparing clothes in the backroom to be sold, and working the door as a form of anti-theft.

The nice hourly pay was a good bonus. Made more than enough to help pay for school costs and to commute back and forth between Oakland and SF. Really enjoyed my time there.

One – more... of the more enjoyable aspects of the job was meeting tourists from all over the world here to spend major cash.

Management was cool, for a bunch of work driven Japanese people. I definitely could notice differences around the attitude of work between both cultures now. I like the Japanese ideal of hard work, or at least aspects of it, but there's less freedom to it, like I feel like you were expected to give 110% where an America-based company would be okay with like, say 70-80%. – less

Cash Wrap Supervisor (Former Employee), Soho, Manhattan Nyc – March 19, 2013
Fast paced environment, started off on the floor, stock customer service, fitting room etc.
Become Cashwrap supervisor due to my hard work, responsibilities were to open up all 8 registers as well as close them. Trained new cashiers. It was one of the best work experiences.

Best and worst place I have ever worked.
Division Advisor (Former Employee), New York, NY – March 17, 2013
Pros: pay
Cons: management and communication with staff.
The management is horrible, and they treat the employees very badly. I loved working here in the beginning because of the company's goals, and beliefs, but after working there for some time you begin to learn more about what is truly important to the company. It certainly isn't the employees.

Busy yet productive job
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Manhattan, NY – December 23, 2012
My position was a cashier. My job was to carry out sale transactions for customers. When it is not busy we go to the sales floor and help out by cleaning the area and making sure all the products are neatly organized. It was a fun job.
