What do you like best about the leadership team?
We all get along. We are concerned that there was a gun. We are concerned for our safety. We do not know what happened to the gun, most of us are afraid to go to work because we are worried he may come back.
We have a wonderful cohesive team within our store. We are successful because we work together to achieve our goals.
Responsive to questions when a situation needs extra attention.

Everything front to back of store.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Better Time off, actual holiday pay
Have us feel safe in our workplace. Honestly, most of us are looking for second jobs, or to leave. Other resturants are busy for season, and we are lacking.

Have a management team that makes you feel valued. It is not ok to be thrown aside when you are doing your best.
What are some of the best things about your team?
The way we work together to get things done
The best part of my day are my coworkers
We work very well together.
Our general manager and assistant managers are well informed always on the top of their game. Keeping us well informed and passed along information to the sales staff.
Staff tries hard, works together as a team
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Hiring people that care about what they're doing.
As long as the lead and supervisor stop focusing on the negative and treating the workplace like high school the team will come together. At the moment everyone is too scared or just don’t car
With the exception of a handful of staff, almost everyone is a more recent addition to the company. The poor habits and treatment from the management and leadership side is negligent to the point of harm, and no good behaviors are being created or enforced. We have no cohesion, and no synergy.
Follow the rules just like staffing agencies
They are good people yes
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The mentality we not to judge.
My coworkers are great to work with
I really love my coworkers
We have a conducive friendly atmosphere at our store that carries through to our guests.
The initial focus of the company was up beat and positive
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
There should equality for worrkers
Fire some of the managers
Leadership is toxic- changes to come from top down.
They do not listen to their employees and they entertain drama and it ultimately makes it worse
Review from Sales Dept
Manager needs to change again
Review from Sales Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
Fast, simple and no negatives.
Meeting new people and it was an easy talk.
Many interviews and a view ofwhat was expected
That people kept interuptting. I get that the person interviweing me was the manager but there were so many other people on the floor that they could have talked to
It's very relevant to what you do
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Simplify the hiring process asap.
They asked me nearly nothing about my qualifications, and hired me on the spot. At this point I believe that is the only way to keep enough employees on hand; hire everyone and see who tolerates leadership.
Nothing it was a normal process
What makes you most happy at work?
My coworkers are wonderful people
The staff is wonderful and kind
The guest, the ability to have a quick chat give them an education on the clothing, feel confident and proud to stand behind what I'm selling.
Working with positive staff and great customers
Able to help our guest with a great out come
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Leadership. I cannot stress this enough. I have been a manager in retail, restaurant, and other settings (if there's a way to prove this to you I am happy to), and the number one reason employees leave is due to management. I have watched 7 people quit same-day because of poor situational handling.
Management is so poor, they all have such a big egos !
I've been told your quality of material is really bad the last 2 years
Human beings are most important asset not the bottom line at employee expense
Clean house of management in stores.
