They are good honest caring people
Friendliness to come work daily
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
What leadership team, I have never seen anyone remotely demonstrate leadership .

COMMUNICATION!!! Meeting and introducing "grunt" workers. Better understanding the solid workers like myself and many others are the only reason that they have ability to line there pockets and receive FAT bonuses.
Communication, value subordinate safety over potential sales.

Having health insurance that is good. And the 401K
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Because as an employee that takes pride in his work and shows up to work every day, I feel underappreciated
yes, way undervalued, be much better if they based pay on real world prices. not the board room fantasies of the wealthy top executives who make millions.
Better medical insurance. Plain and simple, have never paid as much to be paying so much more additional funds even after the deductibles
Pays less than other retail in the area, always short on people due to high turnover
At my current store 100%

What did you like most about the interview process?
It was direct and straight to the point
I was told they were desperate for people and if I wanted the job and would show up I was hired.

Drug testing could improve your employees
Hire people that actually want to work not just hire people because youre understaffed.
