What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Communication. Leading. Enforcing policy .
Who is my executive team? I don't know how to rate them because I'm not sure who you're speaking about. There needs to be a lot more empathy, understanding and compassion most of the sales people and customer service representatives all have mental health issues due to work stress
Employee appreciation and nice raises
Everything under the sun. Honestly
Communication and training. 3 days training, are you serious?
What is the best part about your compensation package?
medical insurance is the best out there

Review from Operations Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Fair wages and set hours
We take on so many calls. We are on so much pressure we had our hours cut and we are making less money when the cost of living has went up. Our company says they care but they will not compensate us so we can live comfortably but they're always asking us what they can do better our answer is pay
Work at a different location
the pay isnt fair. You deliver parts and do the work, you should get compensated. Its not your fault as a driver, most the parts are wrong, it shouldn't come out your pay.
They are foing me wtong
What are some of the best things about your team?
The synergy. We like to get along with each other, drama-free and that just makes our time here more enjoyable and productive.
we can talk and work things out never any grudges everyone is like family
We all stick together. I think we all feel the same. We all try to help each other out when We can. Sales and customer service try to help each other out because we are all overworked. Our customer service team has to take our sales calls No one wants to stay because no one is making money
Our team here is great. All other levels of management from regional upwards are clueless.

Review from Product Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

they are habitual in their desire to do the least possible work

Review from Sales Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
Dealing with MY customers and coworkers.
Me Staying busy every day

Review from Product Dept
Learning things different from my job description
Completing all my tasks and knowing I did a good job
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
All of our prices gone up and all of our quality has gone down. Whoever is working in the locations are not doing their quality control jobs and we're sending junk out to people and we're not being able to keep repeat customers because Of the demanding queue and how important it must be
Management ignore good ideas turn you down
The nepotism and the employees that have been there for longer than 3 years have gotten so comfortable that they take advantage of this company at every turn and the district manager is turning a blind eye to it. You don't send the district manager to his own store to do an investigation
Do a clean sweep and fire everybody that's been there for more than one year and start over if you don't your company will probably end up closing in the Rockford location
Everyone is new because nobody wants to stay because of management so we are training new guys every couple weeks because people keep quiting
