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

A lot of coworkers share similar interests and encourage each other to participate in group activities outside of work. Online gaming, sports, and supporting each others' streams.

What are some of the best things about your team?

We have great communication and culture in our store, and I feel that the store management tries their best to take care of us on an individual level.

What makes you most happy at work?

Interacting with customers and coworkers with shared passions. As I frequently tell customers, "I get to come to work each day and nerd out with people about computers."

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Store leadership has been great at making feel seen and valued as an employee at the store, but overall company leadership hasn't made an impact that I feel in my day to day position. However, I do appreciate all of the company wide employee appreciation incentives and opportunities for growth.

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

Compensation is wonderful at times of high traffic, but is entirely dependent on customers foot traffic. During mid-week and off season, it can lag behind a little. Offering project pay or minimum wage during hours the store is not open (opening and closing shifts) would do a lot to ease this.
