LEGO Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Working for a great company, but have plans to move the US in 3-4 years, and LEGO doesn't have and IT department in Enfield, CT. So are looking for another job there can help me build great relations in the US, hopefully with the same company for many years to come."

"The company has lost numerous experienced merchandisers due to lack of respect from management. The customers in stores know more than LEGO'S merchandising team."

"Working as a merchandiser for LEGO means having a manager who only cares about their reputation with upper-level management and who insults both you and your merchandising team with obviously idiotic and untrue explanations. It is all about 'pomp and circumstance' with LEGO and not content, though the company would like you to think so."

"I worked for Lego for four years. I was disheartened with the company when merchandising management would tell the merchandising team that our hours were being reduced due to budgetary concerns. Then we would find out that our managers had attended a professional ball game during their 'manager's meeting'. The merchandising team now realizes that management will ignore any of our concerns as long as their 'fringe benefits' remain intact. Sad."

"Management is out-of-touch with reality regarding their merchandising teams. We are treated like a bunch of children and yet expected to speak with store account management like a UN ambassador! We aren't paid enough for this. Be careful of merchandising management. There are numerous ways they can give upper-level management the impression you have falsified documents. One manager felt intimidated by my co-worker and did exactly that. Thankfully my co-worker had all supporting documents. I had another co-worker quit due to a cancer diagnosis. I found out later that upper-level management thought she had quit because it was 'discovered' she had falsified documents. Get signatures on everything!"

"Management should watch episode 5, season 1 of Hotel He... Micro- managing and not listening to employees who have been with the company for many years is insulting and sad. Management doesn't care about an employee who is making $10.50 an hour even though said employee is the 'face' of the company to the public."

"Management constantly makes decisions that are out-of-touch with reality. Then they overreact to correct the ramifications of those decisions and employees end up having to do twice as much work. Some managers have been with the company for thirty years. They are no longer capable of 'comprehending' feedback from newer employees who are closer to the issues."

"LEGO merchandisers with extensive experience and excellent work ethics are leaving the company because their opinions and feedback no longer matter. Management continues to insult merchandiser's intelligence by offering 'fake' explanations on why the merchandising budget is being reduced. Meanwhile managers are driving brand new company vehicles and flying all over the country for meetings that could be accomplished with a conference call. LEGO also sends out expensive Christmas gifts to seasonal people who are only with the company for seven weeks a year. Advice to Management: Managers who have screwed up in their previous department should not be transferred into a management position they know nothing about. There is nothing worse than having to tell your manager how to do their job. Actually there is a manager who lies to their team at the team's expense in order for the manager's budget to be less than fellow management."
