Guitar Center Claimed Company
"We have always known that our success comes from our people, but to put it through this lens, we want all our associates to look left and right and see themselves, knowing that Guitar Center is a place where hard work, good ideas, and culture thrive. What they hear from leadership needs to reflect this vision. That means a diverse collection of men, women of all backgrounds and experiences at all levels of our organization. As candidates consider Guitar Center, we want them to know this is who we are and they will feel welcomed here. That’s how we will continue to stick around for another 40, 50, 60 years."?

I am an executive for a large company w/MBA that works at guitar center in the evenings for fun and my love all things stringed. The store employees are great + do the best they can for a corporate leadership group that is less than stellar. I can see why this company is failing as badly as it is
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
New Senior leadership, especially a new CEO that actually has a passion for guitars and has a proven track record that cares about the business.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Boring product lines, less inventory, better lines, the stores are dated and need a facelift. More direct to consumer sales through strategic partnerships.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Most love music and have a passion for musical instruments. Some are typical high teen, low 20's just doing it because its better than McDonalds.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Store level, they are your typical young manager that is still learning how to lead. The corporate leadership is awful. There is no direction bad product line decisions, inconsistent supply chain the best of times let alone during covid.
