Since I started there has been a phenomenal core group of leaders and associates who have helped me develop as a professional and an individual. Everyone does a great deal for one another. It's the people I am around every day that are most enjoyable and the comradery that goes into achieving a common goal.
When I first started here at J.Jill, I had a lot going on in my life and the customer Contact Center offered flexible schedules and the team really understood my need for work life balance. Eventually, when I was ready for advancement, I learned that there was so much room for growth within the company. I have been promoted multiple times and now, more than 20 years later, I hold a significant management role.
J Jill offered tuition assistance when I was in school, they provided paid leave when I had my children, and were great with accommodating my schedule when I needed to take care of my family. As a woman, I also have had some challenging life’s obstacles that I was able to overcome through our Employee Assistance Program. Since my first day, my team has made me feel welcome and supported. I like my job, but I love it because of my people.
