Lifetime Brands

A typical day was interacting with the design and marketing teams developing product and packaging while updating product spec information. It could also include team meetings and reviews as well as interaction with agents and vendors.
 
I learned how to manage my business and promote new collections while moving excess inventory.

I enjoyed the ability to manage independently with management accessibility when needed. 

My schedule was flexibile enough to accommodate work/life balance. 

The most difficult part of the position was the lack of overseas travel to major trade shows that would have encouraged inclusivity and creative inspiration.

The most enjoyable part of the job was preparing for trade shows by setting up and displaying product. Also, the reaction to new product introductions from sales was always very supportive and exciting. 

Scheduled employee events, loyal and hardworking employees and sample sales also added to the positive workplace culture.

As an import compliance manager you must set up a good channel of communication with all departments as well as the overseas China office. They rely on you to feed them the newest update of vendor compliance of each customer as well as giving them approval of labeling, carton markings, price ticket placement and types of approved price ticket. You will also oversee factory audit,
compliance of fair labor, manufacturer registration with vendors, setting up social compliance audit, CPSIA / FDA  lab testing and
sometimes including shipping and delivery deadline in logistics.
Your job satisfaction came at the end of the day when you have successfully completed all your multi-tasking and replied each and every request from China offices and other department in regards to import compliance.

Normal routine, Administering and directing customer picking merchandise, and assigning a door where their product is located, and having them loaded. Closing out the Digital Logistic System (DCS). This includes providing a copy of the Bill of lading of the orders which were loaded, shipped, and closing the trailer in the system, by dispatching. Assist traffic coordinators in building loads, creating the paperwork, and filling out the Bill of lading. Filing, faxing, scanning documents in our system and creating a file. Assist my co-workers and management with any help needed to successfully get the job done. The hardest part is slow season, we have a lot of down time. The most enjoyable part is having good friendly co-workers.

My first position was okay I actually didn't mind the work there. It was at times a little stressful but over all it was bearable. Then I was force to move to another area. I had no knowledge beforehand that this was going to happen or even being talked about and had zero choice or say in the matter. Not only did I not get a raze for this but was forced to work much harder work then I was before. This area was not ran well at all. The manager there had no care for her employees and couldn't keep good employees which was why I was forced to move. It seems bad management for a company to punish its employees if it has an incapable manager punish the manager not the employees. 

A typical day at work, self start by getting my equipment and all tools needed for my duties. Audit and supervise all inventory, and assist on any task needed. I learned new and more efficient ways to complete my duties and help assisting others. I had the pleasure of working and learning from my superiors, and my coworkers and I always worked as a team. The hardest part would have to be finding and correcting the mistakes of others. The most enjoyable part would be working working in a great environment and accomplishing my daily duties and tasks.

This company is fabulous! I have never worked for a company that has been so genuine with stellar work practices. I would recommend them to anyone!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Human Resources so every day is a little different but very satisfying

my typical day started at 0500 hours Monday thru Friday and ended at 1400 hrs. Learned a lot during my near 11 years with company. handled all annual budgets and prepared capital expenditures. Hardest part of the job was trying to work under a set budget company had in place with equipment getting old and outdated. My most enjoyable times where the friendships with all personnel I created.

HR and upper management are not concerned with the ideas and opinions of employees. Some managers are BULLY's and they use the annual review process as their way to retaliate and hold power. and the employee has no voice. HR is there for the company not the employee.  There is minimal room for growth if you are willing to stay in the company for many years until someone leaves the position you desire. They do have nice internal product sales for the employees.

work...work...work... and go home
