Staff that is mature and really would like to see the company pull out of its financial struggle.

Our current manager gives little direction or feedback. It's like we have to try to read her mind in trying to set displays. She is constantly moving things around in the store making it confusing for employees and customers.

Too much inventory. Stores are crowded, and we don't get rid of clearance merchandise fast enough so we have piles of it with nowhere to go. P1 doesn't seem to know who their customer is. Don't overload smaller stores with so much junk. We are beginning to look like a Dollar store.

There is no cohesive look to the store, especially in furniture offerings. It's just random statements of lots of chairs or tables, but nothing that really conveys a look or style for decorating a room. The store is full of stuff that you can find at the Dollar Tree, but at four times the price.

I have been there now almost 5 years as a part-time employee, and almost everyone is part-time. I have never had a review and neither have my fellow employees. They pay less than most retail jobs do now. I stay because I like the people I work with, but P1 offers us little reward for our work.
