Overworked, understaffed, under paid. The customers were horrible and I was not safe at all. My manager also could care less that I went to college and needed weekdays off.

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

The management and the pay.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

I would not hire everyone who walked in lol

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

The team needs to get better at listening to their employees needs as well as recognizing them.

What are some of the best things about your team?

My coworkers is why I stayed for so long. They were so good to me and were friendly.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

I would fire the managers and replace them with new trained ones and I would hire more staff. I would also put a rewards system in place.

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

I feel undervalued because I was never thanked even when I worked 10 days in a row and was always being complained at for something when I have a hard work ethic and always got tasks assigned to me completed. The compensation was also barely enough to meet my car payment and insurance.
