What does the leadership team need to get better at?
They need to be trained in people management. How to treat employees with dignity and respect
Review from Customer Support Dept
providing employees a chance to air their grievences
Supporting, listening and communicating to hourly employees. Strong sense you are replaceable, therefore high turnover.
Treating people with dignity and respect. Being honest with the owner. Trying to keep clients instead of running them off. Not making false accusations without proof to back it up. Stop making up policies that dispute written policies.
They need to get better at leadership
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I feel valued because the amount of work they expect from you and what they pay you isn't even close to being fair
at least, some attempt at a raise.
It would be nice to be treated and supported from the owners
Have more respect around the building. For customers and coworkers.
I bring a lot to the table. I get good hours but I've tried for a raise for a while but to no prevail.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Respect and act like adults
their IQ and manners need improvement
Establishing beneficial practices to improve integrity.

Doing team work and getting along
Actually work instead of standing around talking all day
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
There needs to be more communication, encouragement, training opportunities and cohesion.
They gotta keep their word on how i would get paid mire eveey 8 months but nothing has changed
starters our HR Manager can stop saying shes gonna change the culture of the people being hired when she means she is going to hire less black people and more white people
Accountability moslty. Some who are the gm favorites dont have to pull their weight. Which affects the whole team. Makes the whole team concept seem like bull.
Different store management the current manager is rude disrespectful always looking for something to complain about comes in with a bad attitude just brings everyone down and has caused 4 different good employees to quit or resign because they can't stand being around her anymore.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Asking more real questions not weird ones
He was prejudice against hiring woman, and would more likely hire Christian
Review from Customer Support Dept
To get younger store managers
It has improved since ive been hired.
They are so desperate for people they hire anyone. They have no idea how to read people. They don't ask them reltable questions to even see if they are qualified for the job
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Bad management. A lot of people who left have been mistreated and unheard
Review from Customer Support Dept
Rude assistant managers and employees
Prices are very high compared to competitors. Do everything you can to encourage them to come for good service. Don't tell at employees so loud it can be heard through the store so clients leave immediately. Honor written return policies instead of being lazy refusing to help resolve issues.
The ownership is uninterested. Third generation inheritance...
There is an unfairness throughout the store. A manager should not get away with doing less than minimal work.
