Communication, realistic expectations, work life balance, micromanagement, wage gaps

Communication and more explanation on the job. The videos don't do enough on the job description

Making sure there are enough hours to schedule so that no one is working by themselves more than 3 hours, there should be manager or assistant manager in the store from open to close if customers need to talk to them , a lead / key carrier shouldn't have to deal with customer complaints, questions

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
