My first few years were amazing. The company is acting very unprofessional now. They put employees in very dangerous situations with the store set up. The lack of safty and conditionin of parts being used without replacing is a hazzard. It should be a fun place to work. It's not anymore.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
To be present and not ask workers to lie to building inspectors, cops, & customers or work in places with no running water or air conditioning.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Upper management made no effort to hire employees for the season. We were understaffed and ended up with zero experience workers who played around on shopping carts and sat around smoking or disappearing while a select few did all the heavy lifting and maintenance
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Better training for upper management. The store was ran by children with no banking, cash handling, customer service or general common sense skill. They had ad zero direction. Were left with no communicate and let to run wild and party like it was not a job but playground
What makes you most happy at work?
I personally love the job. Its seasonal but I'm afraid to go back after last falls disaster. I have fun interacting with customers. I have a extensive product knowledge and contribute my artistic talent to raise money for the charity they support. I built animatronics and I'm good at it.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I was asked to beyond what was required. A corporate manager tried to have me fired for reporting the illegal activities I witnessed. I recieved no apologies or gratitude. I spent a lot of money out of my own pocket trying to fix things. I would like to see next season actually be successful
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
I was ready and eager to work. I put in applications. I had to just show up because nobody took time to call. I'm pretty sure it was my age. The DM is young and wanted her age group. She said she would call and never did. I show up the next day and get hired on the spot by another manager.
