What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listen to the people when they explain issues
Caring about their employees mental and physical health. Hiring people that have availability. Not letting 15/25 employees say no to working on weekends.
Review from Sales Dept
The leadership team needs to improve their management skills
Not well trained. Poorly communication
Hahahahaa. Um, they need to LEAD. To MANAGE what needs managing. The endless greed push is pretty much all they were about. Conditions could have been even worse than they were and still... money would have been their only concern.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I have been promised a raise for over two months after moving from the registers to the produce department. I have not been trained in produce.
Review from Sales Dept
My contributions here are not appreciated or understood and for the amount of work i am asked to do i am not compensated fairly
compensation for working more often
Increase pay wages. More often pay raises
The compensation was one of the better aspects, but when you consider the non-existent work-life balance and endless stress and frustration, disrespect... no one is being compensated well or fairly.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
I am not sure if its possible to correct or improve bad apples.
Work on weekends. Coverage of other employees rather than putting it all on one.
Review from Sales Dept
Motivation and better moral. More hours

Review from Sales Dept
Stop cutting hours increase pay
Disclosure of the job description in detail

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Unrealistic standards and micromanagement in order to appease the higher ups and sacrifice of the workers to improve their boss' image needs to stop
Understaffed stop cutting hours increase the pay for everyone
Stop over working people, hire more people. Pay them fairly and give incentives
Under staffing causing customers frustration
