Pros

The Phipps office has great views of the city.

Cons

I worked at Carter’s for a while and feel compelled to share my experience to warn others. The company culture is nothing short of toxic, discriminatory, and downright disrespectful. On a daily basis, I felt discriminated against, and it was evident that the leadership had little respect for their team. It was disheartening to witness the overt racism, as it was clear they had a problem with Black employees. I felt isolated and unsupported, and it was evident that diversity and inclusion were mere buzzwords without real action. The idea of a hybrid remote work was going in 4 days per days per week. Worst of all, the workplace was rife with bullying and gaslighting. It seemed like a favored tactic of some employees and senior leaders to undermine and belittle their colleagues, especially black employees, leading to a hostile and stressful atmosphere. Gaslighting was so prevalent that I often questioned my own abilities and judgment. I strongly advise anyone considering a job at Carter's to think twice, especially if you aren't a white female. The toll it takes on your mental and emotional well-being is not worth it. Seek employment elsewhere in an environment that respects all employees and promotes a healthy, inclusive culture.
