What are some of the best things about your team?
I'm friends with my coworkers. They're the only good things getting me through this job. That and maybe SOME pleasant customer experiences
I love everyone I personally work with, it feels like I go to work with a group of friends instead of coworkers.
My workshop team is full of go-getters, inclusive and cheerful people. Most of them are easily coachable and work together perfectly whenever motivation is high.
Fantastic attitude, smiles and desire to be actual friends, not just punch a clock. That said, that historically is rare for us.
My coworkers are wonderful and supportive. We are a very close-knit team.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Everyone's generally pleasant around eachother. Like I said, we're all friends
My immediate team. Anything above that level is micromanaged to death. And beware if you're a man. This company is a girl's club and they're proud of it.
The good employees that show up and get things done
Even in the occasional pressure situation, we are encouraged to remember that we make teddy bears/make people smile.
Having fun at work is normal
What did you like most about the interview process?
The welcoming environment and personal questions
I was hired at a low point for my store, so I was hired easily
Easy and hired on the spot
Being rescheduled 3 times due to human error of supervisor.
They were honest and gave good feedback.
What makes you most happy at work?
My coworkers, the occasional 50% discount and christmas time
My coworkers are the highlight of any shift
I love talking to customers and helping them stuff their bears.
Giving children the experience and the wonder I had as a child walking into build a bear
Review from Sales Dept
