treating their employees like the human beings that they are and not just a number on a page and paying everyone a livable wage. there is a competing store that pays more for lower level postions and yet they still dont care when they are loosing ppl bc of that exact reason. disgusting behavior.

The pay is minimum, no matter how expensive the area you are in, and management get paid cents more the associates with triple the responsibility. It's not at all livable, even if you're running the store, they don't even make up for it with giving you more hours.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ventas · Publicado hace 4 años

I put less of the blame on my coworkers and more of the blame on the lack of training they receive. Management/district managers need to actually set standards for new hires instead of just hiring seasonals to do halfassed work then get rid of them

Worker to be more curtious to each other and be responsable but i can understand in a way for the hours given and payrate that might be a reason for them to be so laid back also not have so many workers so everyone can take home a responsable ck ...Maybe there would not be so many workers leaving

The company needs to completely re-evaluate how it treats its employees and who they appoint to be district managers. District managers who throw others under the bus to protect themselves are not ideal for their own failures are not ideal for the job
