If you care about your mental health do not work at this place. The distinction with management is at an all time high. The only good thing about working here is that you’ll have a good relationship with your co workers and the hours are decent. Management is horrible. Period

Good hours, poor management

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Tukwila, WA - September 26, 2022

The only good thing I could say about this job were the amount of hours you could get. The pay was decent, but the work environment was stressful and management was poor.

Associate (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - September 20, 2022

Job was fairly easy besides strict cleaning routines. Mostly scheduled everyone to close but different tasks helped keep job interesting. Management were helpful if you were close to them.

Worst experience

Overnight Stock Associate (Former Employee) - New York, NY - September 16, 2022

I did horrible at the interview and was still hired. That should of been a sign that this job was about to work me to death. There was no benefits and not worth working here except for the benefits

the job has a requirement for you to he quick on your feet while having a positive attitude and while you may think you are doing the best that you can management will look right past you and give a raise to someone who started after you

Good work place due to good working colleagues minus the management

Customer Advisor F1 Grade (Former Employee) - London - September 8, 2022

Lack of respect by the management ranging from supervisors to the manager of the branch to the working staff on shop floor.You dont get promoted unless you become the managements best friend at work.

Fun

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Torrance, CA - September 6, 2022

It was actually pretty cool management was great at the time before they switched managers. Hours were reasonable and you could always switch shifts or call out

Fast paced and very demanding; keeps you constantly moving

Supervisor (Current Employee) - Paramus, NJ - September 4, 2022

Daily tasks will be handed down to you during your time as a manager on duty and you’re expected to complete all tasks while working in a fast paced environment

offers flexible hrs and great coworkers - managers are hit or miss

Retail Sales Associate (Former Employee) - New York, NY - September 4, 2022

Pay is reasonable for retail. The coworkers make the job fun, but the organization of the store depends upon the manager, and that person's level of experience/competence can vary. You're on your feet a lot, as expected, and the work is constant but the day goes by fast.

Nice job

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - California - September 1, 2022

This place has extremely high standards for their employees, which could be a good or bad thing depending on the person. The flexibility for scheduling is really nice. I eventually warmed up to the work culture but I had a hard time with my coworkers at first because someone started spreading false rumors about me (this place is full of a lot of young people). Overall it's definitely more work that other retail jobs.

Almost no hours at first, boring and poor management

Retail Sales Associate (Former Employee) - 31 W 34th St., New York, NY 10001 - August 30, 2022

I would go in, unpack items with morning crew, walk around aimlessly assisting customers and wiping things or refolding clothes. Management was very strict at times and very lenient other times. Dreaded coming in sometimes.

Pros

store discount

Cons

management, boring

Glad I was fired lol

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Lake Buena Vista, FL - August 29, 2022

I loved the people I worked with, they were all super nice and helpful and helped me more than my actual trainer. They also prioritize the customer first which can be a good thing and a bad thing. This is the type of company that truly only cares about looking good in front of customers at the expense of their employees. They have super poor organizational skills as well and are pretty behind technologically speaking. I know of small businesses that do everything on the computer which helps to stay organized which is why it was so surprising that most of what this company does, or at least at the store I worked at, was on paper. The managers are also passive aggressive. They have this air of superiority around them which is ridiculous since they practically sold their soul to this god forsaken company. Some of the managers were nice but the others were just running on this power high. I will say though that I am glad I worked here but only because it showed me what I should avoid in my next job. If you choose to work here, just know that they are constantly bringing in more trainees than they can really handle and if you get fired you are 100% replaceable. Good Luck.

Cool management and fun coworkers

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Flushing, NY - August 25, 2022

Working environment was great, management listened to employees and everything worked like magic. Our store was the number one store in sales during my time working there. Only bad part about Uniqlo is that tattoos were not allowed to be shown, and it was strictly enforced

Average retail job

Sales Associate (Current Employee) - Flushing, NY - August 20, 2022

Uniqlo has higher standards and expects their employees to do a lot more than what they get paid for. Raises are hard to come by. Only thing that makes all the mandatory overtime, demanding managers, and strict rules are the coworkers. Wouldn’t recommend the job

Great team, lame management

Visual Merchandiser (Former Employee) - Wayne - August 17, 2022

I worked at a time when the manager's sister was on my team, so the nepotism was strong. I would've enjoyed my time more if I had more of an ability to grow with the company, instead of doing pointless tasks. The company itself is a fast fashion company so I may be asking for too much anyways.

The worst

Sales Associate (Current Employee) - Ala Moana Park, HI - August 14, 2022

I have worked a few jobs before but none like this. The managers are so rude and don’t care to help anyone out. There are a few nice people that I work with, but the environment is so hostile and the management is awful. I’ve never been treated so poorly by another human being. Even on my first day before they had a chance to get to know me. They were rude and disrespectful. 2/10

Discounts and peers

Loss Prevention Investigator & Operations (Former Employee) - New York, NY - July 30, 2022

People is what makes of the business. The day starts with a team meeting in the main floor. People are encouraged to suggest and be creative. Downside is some management are MICRO managers.

Pros

Discounts

Cons

Short Breaks and the day does not end in your work hour. it can end up to midnight even more.

Fun Place; Great Beginner for Retail World

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Bronx, NY - July 29, 2022

Uniqlo's motto and standards are very unique and I can appreciate that immensely. You're required to smile a lot and be on your feet a lot. However, sometimes they gave you a reason to smile and be on your feet! The pay wasn't too great and the music can drive you insane sometimes.

Pretty good

Sales Associate (Former Employee) - New York, NY - July 26, 2022

Great coworkers, some of the best people you’d meet. Pays well for retail. Lots of room to learn and grow if you’re willing to go the extra mile. Unpredictable work schedule is a con
