Qu’est-ce qui est le plus positif à propos de la culture et de l’environnement de votre entreprise?

Employees are friends and work together to make the store a good place to work, since we cant rely on corporate to give us what we need.

Quelles sont les meilleures choses à propos de votre équipe?

Despite low pay, being understaffed, poor work conditions (corporate controls the store temperature and refuses to fix our AC), and being completely ignored by upper management, my store manager and coworkers work hard, try to stay upbeat, and care for each other

Qu’est-ce qui vous plaît le plus dans l’équipe de direction?

My store manager puts in 60 or 70 hours a week in stressful conditions. We have an amazing group of employees and she is fair and leads by example, but HIGHLY underpaid. Our worth as employees is greatly undervalued, managers/store needs are constantly dismissed by the higher-ups in charge.

Qu’est-ce qui ne va pas et comment cela peut-il être amélioré?

Store conditions are poor, pay is abysmal, stock is often low, prices are inflated, quality of fabric fluctuates but is generally coewed by the public as poor. Store layout is terrible--obviously the people who make the decisions for Joann dont actually SHOP at Joann. Pay more. Listen. Change.

Pourquoi vous sentez-vous sous-évalué et qu’est-ce qui vous rassurerait par rapport à votre rémunération?

There is no compensation. Benefits for fulltime employees dont help the vast majority of is kept working part time and are not affordable for those few that work fulltime. The "keyholders" (managers) at my store make around $9 an hour. PAY YOUR EMPLOYEES A WAGE THEY CAN ACTUALLY LIVE ON.

Qu’avez-vous le plus aimé du procédé d’entretien?

I didnt actually interview for the job. The manager hired me because I was a regular customer with sewing/craft experience who wouldnt be relying soley on the income from Joann to survive. I filled out an online application, the manager called me about a month later, I started the next day
