What needs to change to make the company culture better?

There is so much drama constantly and its SO disorganized

Being involved with what is happening in your stores.

Review from Product Dept

Everyone needs to worry about work instead of worrying what's going on with other people and their personal life's. Worry bout what needs to be done and do it..no one works there..they are too busy worrying about drama..lines have been crossed!!!!

Executive Leadership is far too ingrained in making technical decisions and they do not understand the complexities of decisions they have made in the past

Actually care about your workers

Review from Sales Dept

The rue21 rivergate location didnt have meetings. All decisions are based off of he said she said, and even the district manager has a communication issue. Alot of this locations issues could be resolved with better conflic resolution and communication skills.

Managers should be willing to hear all staff and be selective. Treat all staff especially new employees with equal respect and consideration.

Lived through way to many changes not sure it's possible unless completely dissolved and rebuilt from new

Don’t just ask managers what needs to change, ask associates and customers as well. come to the store once in a while but don’t let anyone know you’re coming to see what a regular day at work looks

Review from Sales Dept

The gossip amd catty comments are awful!

Review from Sales Dept

Every one is so stuffy we need to be enlightened
