Summary in this article says it all!

I only heard from one person that she was unhappy because she was not promoted here. Most others don't even have any expectations for getting promoted? The reason is that this is not a place to grow a career. I hope to leave by the end of next... — read more 

Please let me know

All they do is take advantage of associates. That's it. I'm sick and tired of it. I've been working here for five years and nothing ever changes for the better, always for the worse. It's our fault as well since we keep letting them get away with it... — read more 

My goal is to leave Fossil as soon as possible but I haven't been able to find anything better for three months now. The competition is huge wherever I apply and despite my experience here and skills, I still have to wait. I didn't think it would... — read more 

Pandemic, inflation, conflict in Europe. All of these things reflect terribly on Fossil and I don’t expect anything good to happen. After the quarterly results, everything will be clearer so I can’t wait for them to be published. Are there any... — read more 

I'm done with Fossil and I want out, preferably with a severance package.

so the CIO job at Fossil Inc. is apparently an ejector seat. In about 10 years, even the most unpopular CIO is now no longer there, out of no less than 4 CIO`s. What happened ? When Ed Robben left the company as CIO, it took more than half a year to... — read more 

When do bonuses come out this year?

I’ve worked at an outlet since 2014. Before they started making smart watches, an upset Fossil employee was hard to find. Fossil lost so much money because the smart watches genuinely SUCK (just so so SO many warranty returns, it’s crazy). After the... — read more 

The novelty in the fall retail bag line looks so dated! I remember seeing that chevron-like patchwork in bags years ago. The Fossil signature print is sad and boring. The floral print in the Dillon Weekender bag is hideous! I don’t see a guy or girl... — read more 

What are your thoughts about potential Fossil layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

I was better the moment I gave notice. I had no doubt in my decision to resign. The only thing I regret is that I didn't leave earlier. Not only do I get paid more, but there is a lot less stress, and best of all, I finally have a manager who is... — read more 

If the situation with vaccination escalates, that is, if in the end we all have to get vaccinated in order to keep our jobs, where will those who still do not want to be vaccinated go? I don't like anti-vaxx or pro-vaxx discussions, nor would I... — read more 

If you haven’t taken the the vax what does your future at Fossil look like? Will we get fired over this? What about our civil liberties?

Nobody on the top seems to care, though. They keep leading this company the same way: no direction, no vision, no long-term strategy. The entire industry is going through a major crisis but you wouldn't know it if you worked here. Titanic had better... — read more

Some say he was fired some say he quit - does this mean more layoffs are coming for some of us?

Has anybody else heard about those rumors? Or is it just FUD?

What do u guys think? what a great turaround that was...same demographic, same price points...come on!!Let s turn the tide

I find it hard to motivate myself to perform my best every day. But how can one solve this issue? Is it the industry or market that we are in or the poor management? I struggle to find the answer to this question. I keep wondering that as well... — read more 

Do you think Space Jam limited edition launch was good or not good for the Fossil brand? It brought a lot of attention, but are partnerships like these good brand building or selling out?

Interesting the new appointment of Holly Briedis as new Chief Digital Officers...she actually has a rather impressive experience and background coming from McKinsey where she led the Digital/Omnichannel practice, which makes me hopeful...(she could... — read more 

In my opinion, here remained only the worst employees and those naive enough to believe that things would get better. The best people have left and are still leaving. That says enough about the future of this company. That is quite a sufficient... — read more 

And that's okay. I'm happy to see that people who have other options are seeing through Fossil and are looking elsewhere. Just because that means we remain in a cr---y situation and chronically understaffed doesn't mean that I wish such fate on... — read more 

Sometimes I feel we are more worried about costs than sales. If we put in as much energy into growing sales and adapting or leading the industry I think we might have a chance. Just venting. SMH.

The stress has become too much for me. I am well aware of the fact that grass isn't always greener, but I'll be willing to take that chance as soon as an opportunity presents itself. This company is sinking fast and I don't want to be around for the... — read more 

I no longer have any high hopes from Fossil in the sense that some of the radical changes this company needs will happen here. However, maybe some small changes would be enough?

I absolutely agree with everyone who thinks that the future of Fossil is to become a small company because the company will have to cut additional costs to adjust to poor sales. I see no room for optimism. I'm just wondering how much Fossil will... — read more 

Owners of older Fossil watches won't be happy! https://www.droid-life.com/2021/06/05/fossil-wont-upgrade-older-watches-to-new-wear-platform/

I hate saying this, it sounds too pessimistic, but if this company doesn't make some big changes in the way it does business, I think that every next year will be more and more difficult, until a complete catastrophe. I wish it wasn’t too late... — read more

Although positive comments don't seem to be too popular on this forum, i think it is worth noting that Capri Holdings management was very positive on their earnings call today about the performance of their watch business. They noted that retail... — read more
