What are some of the best things about your team?

Friendly and funny. Have fun

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The most positive is the genuine care for each other's families and wellbeing. We're encouraged to put family first

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Engaging with store teams in lower leadership levels and not just letting Store Directors run things how they choose without maintaining a consistent culture across the board

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Many competitors are offering higher starting rates and I bring a lot of prior experience to the table. Leadership is paid such a varying range, it's unacceptable. Peers shouldn't have significant differences. One lead shouldn't earn $11 while another earns $20. Too big of a difference
