What did you like most about the interview process?

Very familiar like and not intimidating

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

The part time and seasonal members can all rely on each other

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Scheduling proper coverage for all departments and being willing to compromise for more hours when the workflow is demanding of it.

What are some of the best things about your team?

The framing team communicates effectively. They are always kind with their corrections and are helpful in times of uncertainty. I can always rely on them.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I am a custom framer and I am paid $10.50, just like a floor person. However, I have more duties and tend to know more about store operations in and outside of the frame shop than a floor person does. I do not feel like the labor I produce is being paid for properly.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Our frame shop is overloaded with production and we are not properly staffed. This week alone we have to produce 40 pieces every single day on top of handling sales, but only three available framers for a 14 hour store day. It's too much. we need time, people, and an ability to limit production
