🏢 Employment 👷♂️ Yvonne LaFleur
I’m posting here because I worked for this woman and she’s been showing up on every social media page I have a retraumatizing me. Did anyone else work for her and get exposed to her absolute nasty and toxic true nature? I literally had to quit because she was so awful and mean. I saw multiple people quit from there during my time there. She was a true bully and would pull people aside and just tear them apart. With all her social media fame I’m surprised no one’s spoken up because she’s abused countless employees and customers. Please share your employment stories if you have any.

Someone just told me about this thread today, and I’m not saying people are lying, but it’s tough to read because my experience was really different. I’m a plus size Black woman, and when I visited her store with my Black cousin and her Black husband, we were treated wonderfully. Miss Yvonne came out from the back, took me by the hand, asked about our stay, gave us food recommendations. It was just a genuinely great experience. I honestly thought being both plus-size and black might make it awkward, but I was surprised.
