Men's Wearhouse Employees Plead With Customers Not To Take Out Anger On Them Kim Bhasin - Huffington Post Posted: 06/27/2013 4:57 pm EDT Though Men's Wearhouse has been quiet on its social channels following the controversial firing of founder George Zimmer, many of its employees have taken to the company's Facebook page to defend it against the onslaught of consumer outrage, urging customers to continue to patronize Men's Wearhouse for the sake of the front-line workers. "It's sad to see this happen but it's not the board members that work in these stores, it's us employees that you all will be hurting," wrote Amanda Balow, who works as a senior customer service associate for Men's Wearhouse in Ohio. Angry customers have flocked to the Men's Wearhouse Facebook page to rail at the company for its decision earlier this month to fire Zimmer, the longtime face of the brand who appeared in commercials touting the tagline, "You're going to like the way you look -- I guarantee it." As commenters flood each post with shaming, name-calling and threats to boycott the retailer, the team behind the company's Facebook page has simply continued to put up style tips and suit suggestions. The only line of defense has consisted of the self-identified employees who are bold enough to speak up. <snip>
