- Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?They need to practice work safety. They allow employees to cut open boxes without using safety gloves/correct procedures and there could be an accident anytime due to where merchandise is at and how employees have to reach too far to get merchandise. They don't seem to care.
