¿Qué es lo más positivo de la cultura y el medio ambiente en su empresa?

The team is the best part of working at Book a Millions.

LGBTQ feels safe here. It's a safe place. Everyone belongs.

Its mostly positive, but some pf the managers can come across as unkind and rude.

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

The employee discount is the only positive thing I can think of right now. The culture is mostly pushing for metrics and getting told we should be grateful for any pittance that they give us for a raise once a year.

My coworkers, being around books and talking about books with people.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 3 años

Ineffective communication, district level + leadership is incredibly unhealthy for effective teams.

Not sure. But the overall culture comes from the top and that is not the most operationally sound

The people who work with me.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Atención al Cliente · Publicado hace 7 años

We sell some neat books sometimes and some of the customers are cool. That's really it. We are all so disheartened and beginning to find other jobs to phase out BAM from our lives.

I enjoy the work environment because i'm surrounded by things I enjoy

¿Qué hay que cambiar para mejorar la cultura de la empresa?

Pay better and dont lean on a certain political side. Move inventory around faster. Update the systems to make it easier to help customers out.

Revisión Publicado hace 5 años

We need harsh rules on communication and personal life of what can be said and shouldn’t be allow

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 5 años

For managers to accept BAM is not their store. That we should follow what BAM says not how this manager likes it over this one.

Revisión Publicado hace 6 años

The company needs to become more customer minded. We build relationships with these people and get them to come back time and again. Forcing employees to exploit this relationship by making people force a gamestop type tactic on the customers is embarassing.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 6 años

More fairness amongst employees. Hire better people

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 7 años

It’s a slow store so not many customers. The only problem is the manager

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 7 años

Employees should get paid better. People who actually do work should be compensated for it.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 7 años

The company culture is all about me, me, me. They don’t know the meaning of the word team. Everyone is out for themselves.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 8 años

The management needs changing in this store.
