Pantorama, Inc. is rotten to the core and deserves to go down in a flaming wreckage that would make the Hindenburg look like a church picnic.
They are a Canadian-based company that sells brand-name fashions, and they are the most corrupt group of charlatans I have ever seen.
My experience with them is based on working for their Ottawa district, and I bet that many of the problems are due to their choice in a district manager, but the fact that they chose her says nothing good about them, and my experience with upper management and HR is pretty crappy as well.
At the store level, they encourage employees to lie about one another to management. Managers are instructed to remind employees that they are all 100% replaceable. The Machiavellian machinations that go on between district managers, managers and employees are a constant evil plague. People who gossip, narc, backstab and use more naive employees are praised and coddled while honest employees are run out.
I worked for them for almost a year in five different stores, and over and over, I saw them literally use employees; run them ragged until they got fed up and quit, or had nervous breakdowns (one of my co-wokers actually got a doctor's note prescribing a 4-week vacation; she was hardly sleeping or eating for two weeks before that).
Head Office is openly hostile to the sales associates who put themselves out there and make them money every day. They frequently send excessively snarky correspondence critiquing small errors. HR exists for the sole reason of keeping employees at arm's length, so that HO can avoid lawsuits. They are cold, calculating and have no interest in running a quality business.
I know that much of this stuff goes on in other companies, but I have never seen it so brazenly encouraged or rewarded. It was disgusting, and I hope they hemorrage money until they shrivel up and die.
