The management works with the strong core values of the company's PAST. Since the pandemic, the company has not cared about the people- who are the building blocks to the success of the company! They seem to only care about monetary value and not experiences anymore.
I believe they severely underpay people in management & only provide funding for personnel in sales associate roles due to minimum wage raises. Example- a 3rd level manager of 6 years makes $18/hr while an associate who is under 1 year makes $16.50/hr. No allowed conversation compensation tolerated.
What used to make me happy was the drive to grow, learn, and gain experience- as of recently, they have bled us so dry and spread us so thin with more work, less support, and then inaccurate/ unfair reviews. Example- 40% of performance based on a program with severe technical issues (Fulfillment).
The team I have built in my store is based off of the company's past culture. The culture the company wishes to portray is great- but contradicts the company's actions. They want people to feel valued- but then cut bonuses in half due to technical online ordering system errors not of our fault.
I love the culture and environment I have been able to build and maintain- it feels as f the company works against this with their actions. One being the cuts on payroll- Corporate have expressed the hope people just quit after not scheduling them for a month- to avoid layoffs & legal responsibility
