I work with people who have become close friends, but always left in the dark when it comes to operations.

I believe it is fair for the job that I am required to do.

401k is good with the match

If we were heard and seen as ppl. Alot if changes need to come. Their stuck in running things the old fashion way when times have changed

Inflation has caused everything except my pay to go up. Makes no sense. Cost of living is high for the little guy.

Be more willing to help and work as a team

Stop giving management to people who don't work more than 3 hrs for a 6 hr shift

Listening and taking constructive criticism.

Drop the "woke" stupidity. DEI is a crutch for the lame. This company goes beyond lame.

Personally, I love merchandising. When I complete an end cap or a storefront display, I take pride in it.

Coming in to be with my dollar tree family.

I'm glad i gave a job that pays decent and i love what i do, just wish i had more of me to make my team better

My customers and helping the co.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

They need to step out of the office and work 24 hours starting on our T1 and ending on T2 with the aame amount of hours and ppl they exspect us to work with

The safety and cleanliness of some stores are not adequate. Policies and procedures need to be reevaluated. Pay raises need to happen across the board or there will be no one coming to work I fear.

Honestly getting better upper management with a heart would help tremendously

Hold people accountable for the things that they do and they don't do

Stop the top from being greedy and pass a little more to those making their dollars
