Rack Room Shoes Environment Employee Reviews

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

Peoples around the jobs are positive

Review from Sales Dept

The accessibility of the executive team. It is clear they are all in alignment and they communicate a cohesive plan.

Seminole location amazing location brad flint is a incredible manager at store 749 he deserves all the praise the job itself is fun i loved the job but when i moved to store 230 was the problem and made me hate the job overtime due to the enviroment

The job itself can be fun people are terrible

I like the fact that everyone helps each other and we all get along.

That we get to listen to all types of gene of music

the people working and the ability to fit in

The diversity of clientele. Due to our location of the city, we have many clientele derived from different states & countries, which keeps us all "on our toes". E.g.: Requiring a second language to provide service for a customer is very common, which brings us, as employees, to rely upon each other.

Review from Sales Dept

I was really excited because i was told it was family oriented but quickly found out that was a lie.

the associates make the plave positive

people, they are interesting. Funny sometimes

Review from Sales Dept

The team I have to work with

The environment created by store manager

Review from Sales Dept

There are different ages,and for the most part,they are fine. Some do not speak unless I speak to them first. Orientation was very confusing.

I cant find one positive thing about this job.

My fellow co workers are very hard working.

Review from Sales Dept

My co workers are great. Since the new manager started 3 months ago 7 people have quit and she fired one for lame reasons.

Review from Sales Dept

We sell shoes for the whole family and we will have something for everyone.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Many thibngs, list too long to write. Mainly how new staff is treated but msotly the insecurities within managkent. Manaent needs more professionalism and ti seprtate personal life from work lifr

A new district manager is needed in Delaware/Pennsylvania area

Better leaders who work the sales floor and doesn't hid in the back really do nothing as the administration side is simple but lack of actually working the floor. Just because you have been there 22 years doesn't mean you stop and make the new workers do all the work. you lead by example.

Encourage those who have been there for decades not to hinder new employees.

Better management who can deal with there emotions

Stop so much drama that starts for no reason

Review from Sales Dept

Employee relations, pay better, communicate better

A change in upper management

my manager needs to be fired.

Store manager needs to leave. She had made it more than uncomfortable for EVERYONE working here

Review from Sales Dept

Better store management, DM presence and relations with assistant managers and associates (team leads).

Review from Sales Dept

The manager of the store treats her employees very rudely and badly.
