What do you like best about the leadership team?
Our direct managers are awesome people that remember that we're all human.
I have mixed feelings about the whole thing Wright now.
Direct management did their best to retain quality employees. Upper management and HR could care less.
They eventually get transferred away.
their support and willingness to help me succeed
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
discipline and accountability and stability
Better training on ethics and customer service with ethical & communication class or training!
Talking to people realizing who got them where they are at
Be more efficient with answers and employess are overworked in job site.
Being honest and forthright with their employees. Working towards an understanding that the environments in which employees are valued and treated well have better overall success and customer satisfaction. What is good for your employees is good for your customers.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
I like everything about it
I feel it's good when you need it
401k plan benefits medical dental etc.
I like the Union, I like the 401k plan and the match. And I like the great health coverage for my family.
I don't know how to answer that.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I have worked so hard for the company with little to no staff maybe some compassion
Fair salary for hours worked.
Wages are lower that competition, uncaring decisions. i.e. under severe weather conditions, won't close early. Matching Wages to others in the area. Any kind of matching contribution to the 401k. (Unless grandfathered, they don't match at all now). A Christmas bonus or even just a party.
Pay is awful and get punished being a good worer while bad workers slack off
Their competitors offer more hours and better salary
What are some of the best things about your team?
We work hard, we all like each other, we arent judgmental.
Hard workers that cared about their performance and deserved much higher compensation for their contributions to the company's profits.
ability to get the job done if staffed properly
We all work together. We all communicate well, and everyone respects each other. When it's time to take care of tasks as individuals, we rock that. And when it's time to do something as a team, we rock that too.
The friendships that I build with them.
Review from Sales Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Better training and vetting employees character and skills to proform their duty!
Get some help for once
Change attitude at work and be more frienly
we do not have meetings
How to meet at the very least the very basic requirements
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Managers know how to give constructive criticism without it hurting peoples feelings. We are all willing to grow and be good at our jobs. Coming to work feels like another family.
Comfortable with coworkers, funny and caring, always there to help you out with anything at work or in your home life.
Treat people with integrity and respect!
Most of the employees are friendly
Everything. Upbeat music playing, friendly and funny people of all different ages and nationalities, and everyone works hard.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
if you have a standard then run it or do away with all this training that we don't comply with
This company has a structure where people seem to fear whoever is above them in the chain. Everybody is trying to simply please their supervisor rather than finding the best solution to a problem. This is where overreactions come in. Everything becomes urgent when someone's supervisor is upset.
Review from Sales Dept
To give the option of doint overtime, instead of making an associate do overtume without asking. I emd up doing overtime because I am cashier and self-checkout trained. Then they treat me like a nuicence, when I ask when I can go clock out to go home.
Fire people who cannot understand protocol after months of employment
The managers need to remember how the work is done and not expect things to happen with the snap of their fingers. They need to dig in next to employees to experience the work first hand.
Review from Operations Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
It felt casual, and I was hired on the spot which made me feel good.
The way the interviewers make you very comfortable
The questions I had were answered
How friendly the HR guy was. He was kind and had good questions and actually listened when I answered. Still have a great relationship with him.
He seemed eager for me to join our team.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Less scripted. Felt impersonal and led to me not feeling like a unique employee so much as a worker bee.
Better vetting and skill evaluation or test. Maybe personality test!
This company is not worth working for.
They force a standardization to the process where interviewers are simply checking off a list of specific questions. Our newcomers at my recent store said the process was three questions and took only a few minutes. We need to allow interviewers the freedom to explore a candidates' qualifications.
Review from Sales Dept
give them a mint at the start of the interview
Review from Sales Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
My favorite part is being friendly to customers, and putting a smile on their face.
The people and the environment
Getting customers what they need. When I get a smile from a customer, that's where I get job satisfaction.
Getting to focus on my tasks and knowing I'm good at what I do, even if it feels like I'm contributing to people being overcharged for basic necessities like food and toiletries.
The customers and making them happy
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
How to reach HR when a employee has an issue.
Some accosiates, customers can tell who doesn't like their job.
The store I work at is disgusting and the produce section has a large amount of fruit flies and rotting product
The inside management is allowing expired product and tobacco to be sold. The hours are barely increased although business is picking up exponentially in the department I work in. There are many in management that are spiteful. There are many who have gotten in trouble for following policy. Much mor
