Overall it has been a neutral experience with a lot of negatives and a few positives. A good starting job for a young person interested in sales, customer service, or supplements. But soon you will realize the pay is unacceptable.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Initiative. Part time employees are paid minimum wage so you can expect minimum quality of work. Why should they lift a finger for unlivable wages?

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

Instead of keeping stores in shopping malls, move them to high traffic areas such as near gyms, shopping centers, near restaurants, etc. my store averages 5 customers a day. Even on a Friday. When you suggest this the company looks at you like a joke. Waste.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

I do enjoy the fact that the overall message of the company is to promote health and wellness. If you can get past the low pay and work load, it is a good place to work if you like to help other people achieve their health and wellness goals.

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

$12 per hour is awful pay for a full time manager. Especially when you pull the load for the store, train, hire, recruit, place orders, make sure goals are met. They ask too much for the pay you get. Unrealistic goals. At a fast food restaurant you start out at $12, and target starts at $15? Smh.
