Review from Sales Dept
The emotional salary. The 20 plus benefits available to everyone from birthday paid leave to bonuses and commissions scheme.
The entire package the employees get upon employment is outstanding.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
technical apparel designer are the leaders in making sure apparel is ready for mass production, yet we do not get a yearly merit bonus of 2.5% to 3% plus a yearly compensation bonus like other companies like Adidas, Google, Meta or Nike.
Follow basic labor laws. Please
I believe the remuneration is too low. I'm a part time employee and feel that the hourly pay is too low.
I am undervalued as an employee with no promotion, cents for raises, and no bonuses are offered. No room for growth for my career too. It would be better if PD worked with employees on growth within the company and making them feel valued.
I wish the commissions were managed better

Management as I stated before because they hangout personally with some of the floor team it brings favoritism. Some employees can call in but when others call in it is a problem.
