They treat me very well and are accommodating

Review from Operations Dept

communication and availability of resources

Review from Operations Dept

their ability to set an example

Review from Sales Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

The leadership team needs to get better at being on the same page about how disagreements between employees should be handled. And not put cashiers on a higher pedestal than the rest of employees

Review from Sales Dept

The 5090 Launch was terrible. First come first serve created an unsightly camp outside of the building for more than two weeks that put people at risk of illness and injury. Uncool. We need to do a QR code or a raffle or something that prevents a big stinky mass of bodies camping on the building.

Review from Sales Dept

accommodating schedules, stop scheduling people to only close, stop forcing people to come on their off days

Review from Sales Dept

On boarding and communication. I have been with the organization for just over a month and the reality doesn't align with what is taught during the gear onboarding. Instead of learning from best practices I have been thrusted in to situations where I have no reference on how to handle.

Leadership without implementing micromanagement and threats of demotion. I am personally more inspired by leadership by example, and at our store I feel like the management strategy could not be further from that.

Review from Sales Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

To be honest, the tuition reimbursement

Review from Sales Dept

Love to be on commission, health benefits are great

Review from Sales Dept

ability for bonus at the end of every quarter

Review from Operations Dept

To me the 401K and Healthcare

Review from Sales Dept

Maybe not the best part but i really like the access perk app.

Review from Sales Dept

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

Compensation Reviews

BYO and Systems are allowed to sell in general sales and it feels as though I am working to help those departments sell more while struggling to meet my customers per hour metric. They also dont contribute as much to the maintenance of the department even though they sell there too.

Review from Sales Dept

I feel that there are many daily responsibilities from dusting the aisles, grabbing returns, organizing the shelves, and doing downstocking reports especially during truck days that interfere with the main goal of helping customers. Any kind of incentive for completing these would be appreciated.

Review from Sales Dept

If there was a clear statement of compensation growth by length of time in the company.

Review from Operations Dept

I do not like the commission-based pay for service technicians. I think a set, base-pay with spiffs as a bonus would be better

More money is helpful to payoff bills

Review from Sales Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

We are all alike and can relate with each other, allows us to work stronger as a team and the drive to help each other out if amplified.

Review from Sales Dept

We take care of each other

Review from Sales Dept

Everyone is super nice and helpful.

Review from Operations Dept

pleasant and easy to work with

Review from Operations Dept

teamwork and cooperation, the managers also help

Review from Sales Dept

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

Team Reviews

it's a hit or miss with some people so i'm fairly neutral about it

Review from Sales Dept

They lack in striking a balance between merchandising and sales.

Review from Sales Dept

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

Environment Reviews

The teamwork and fun working in a tech store.

Review from Sales Dept

That our opinion really matters and we listen to each other, it's a great place to work with excellent and smart people

Review from Sales Dept

People help each other most of the time. And everyone tends to have a good sense of humor

Review from Operations Dept

the friendship made throughout the company with my peers

Review from Operations Dept

the employees and managers for sure

Review from Sales Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Actually hold managers accountable for what they do/say with/do associates when nobody is around.

Review from Sales Dept

Pay, training, and customer foot traffic. There is no advertisement. All customers that come in state "I didn't know this place was here"

finding more ways to reward employees outside of sales numbers

I think everyone could pitch in on some busy work more evenly so that sales could also be distributed more evenly

Review from Sales Dept

Please top micromanaging the stores!

1- I like to work on commission, 2- Learn something every day from the interactions with costumers, 3- Research about hardware and solutions, etc

Review from Sales Dept

The people are great that work here

Review from Operations Dept

my leadership team and my employees

Review from Operations Dept

high traffic customer days, and my coworkers

Review from Sales Dept

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

Outlook Reviews

BYO and Systems selling in General Sales is demotivating and makes it feel like General Sales associates are not needed at times except to maintain the department. Customer handoffs also don't happen as often as they should because I sometimes see a BYO associate sell in General sales with no call.

Review from Sales Dept

Dealing with customers is sometimes draining.

There was a long stretch of time when I loved this job, but after a while it becomes dificult to maintain that enthusiasm, especially when things get in the way of what makes us money. I'm not here to work for free.

Review from Sales Dept

There may be a flow of customers but there are dead periods. This is not something that can be controlled.

Review from Sales Dept

Stop adding non commission tasks to commission sales teams or better compensate them during those times.
