Pros

Probably only good thing is I learned that emotional abuse at work is not ok and will absolutely never settle for an abusive work role again. Not worth your mental health declining!

Cons

I’m not one to ever write reviews but i genuinely could not recommend this place less to anyone who is considering a role here, especially in sales. It’s a miracle this place hasn’t gone down in flames and has somehow survived lawsuits they’ve lost. Incredibly abusive work environment - simply not worth it. Please, please, please listen to the bad reviews and do not trust any good ones!

We’re disappointed to read this review, as it does not reflect the reality of this individual’s experience with our company. While we respect every former employee’s right to share their perspective, we believe it’s important to provide context. Throughout this individual’s tenure, we went above and beyond to support him—providing an unprecedented amount of PTO within his first three months to accommodate personal matters, allowing to work remotely, including from other countries, for extended periods of time even though we have an in office requirement for the sales team, and sending him on multiple all-expense-paid trips, including a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend the Olympics with his spouse. Unfortunately, the breakdown in our professional relationship was due to documented misconduct within our CRM, where he was found orchestrating a scheme to claim unearned commissions. This violation of company ethics ultimately led to his departure. We remain committed to fostering a high-integrity, supportive work environment for our team and wish this individual the best in his future endeavors.

Pros

Working at Cuvee is very exciting with all the luxury homes, destinations, and interesting guests! My colleagues are some of the hardest working people in the industry. Each team and destination collaborates and works diilgently together to provide our guests with a highly personalized curated experience they desire. Our team is very passionate about our product and we believe in the vision. The benefits are good and some extras include traveling to visit the beautiful destinations and villas in our collection.

Cons

It is stressed when interviewing that Cuvee isn't for everyone. It will require some work during the weekends and evenings. The pace can be fast at times but, if you enjoy a challenge, you will love it!

Pros

There was truly no pro to this company.

Cons

The most toxic work environment I’ve EVER worked in. Upper management is a joke and incredibly micromanaging and condescending. They will yell at people and belittle them. Absolutely no work life balance. Be expected to have to answer calls/emails/texts at 6 am or 11pm and on weekends. Was absolutely berated for not responding to an email within 5 hours because I was not in town for a 3 day holiday weekend and was told I should’ve have used a PTO day for it if I wasn’t going to be available. CEO and COO lead with fear, manipulation and there’s just flat out weird vibes there. Also VERY high turnover and previous sales reps not getting paid. Don’t let the fancy pretty villas and false promise of making good money fool you - RUN from this company. Traumatically horrible!!!

We were surprised to read this review, as it does not accurately represent the experience or culture of our organization. While we understand that not every role is the right fit for every individual, we feel it’s important to clarify a few points. In the situation referenced, a client was actively looking to book and management was unaware the employee was unavailable, as no PTO or out-of-office notice had been submitted nor was the "off grid" nature of this trip discussed with any team members. In a client-facing luxury sales role, proactive communication about availability is essential so coverage can be arranged and we are always up front with every sales team member about this from day one. We also categorically reject the claim that sales representatives are not paid. Our commission structure is clearly documented and consistently honored based on the Commission Agreement each eligible employee signs. Luxury hospitality is fast-paced and performance-driven, and while that environment is not for everyone, many of our team members thrive within it.
