West Marine Outlook Employee Reviews

What makes you most happy at work?

The hot yacht cougars,easy pickins

Helping a customer put together a plan to do a complete product and explaining the products and techniques involved. They walk out with everything they need for a complete job and the confidence that they can pull it off. It feels like passing it forward.

Review from Sales Dept

Getting to work with people with similar interests, and we work well together.

When I sell something with commission

Review from Sales Dept

When Jason isn’t the closing manage

When I'm allowed to be productive and work instead of standing around doing nothing. Hard workers shouldnt be perceived as a threat by management.

When trucks come in like to do the stocking

Review from Sales Dept

The customer courtesy and emlpoyee attitude.

Making every customer that comes in the door happier than ever thought they would be

helping a customer find what they are looking for, assisting with safe boating products, engaging customer to let them know we are there for them

Review from Sales Dept

seeing my coworkers and helping others

Review from Sales Dept

My teammates working together to make a difference.

That I have the option to leave early after I’m done with work

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

They need someone who cares about the employees not a bean counter worried about numbers.

Someone needs to pay a visit and act like a customer and no one there knows.. Listen to the fowl language and how they degrade cashiers..

A lot of people who are customers find the manager creepy and my coworkers as rude and cold

Our company needs to replace registers and card readers instead of pulling more profit. Hire people that greet the customer, engage, and advise them of our memberships and protection plan.

Review from Sales Dept

They do not like how high everything is and how the general manager acts

They hate the prices and how our managers have attitude

Retail employees need to be paid a livable wage
