Build-A-Bear Workshop – The actual workshop vibe is amazing. Just serving and helping kids is amazing. But the corporate blunders back to back with such rapid frequency really makes the ship feel like it's poised to sink. Resting on COVID sales and putting out greedy hikes and promos do not pass the vibe check at all. | Comparably

Каковы самые лучшие качества в вашей команде?

Fantastic attitude, smiles and desire to be actual friends, not just punch a clock. That said, that historically is rare for us.

Что бы вы хотели улучшить в процессе собеседования в вашу компанию?

Remove the bureaucracy and learn some basic social skills. There's more to life than pondering how every waking moment would work as a Facebook post.

Что самое позитивное вы можете сказать о культуре и обстановке на вашей работе?

My immediate team. Anything above that level is micromanaged to death. And beware if you're a man. This company is a girl's club and they're proud of it.

Что идёт не так, и как это можно улучшить?

Guests feel that the products they want are never in store. There's constant corporate mandated upselling and forcing socially shy guests into uncomfortable social scenarios. There's a lot of settling of differences through exaggeration, innuendo and passive agression and spiteful career sniping.

Почему вы чувствуете себя недооцененным(ой), и как ваша зарплата могла бы на это повлиять?

The issue is that lack of autonomy makes every position worth about minimum wage. It also invites hiring the lowest quality people because that's what their skills are usually worth. So being an employee who works and has a functioning brain feels punishing as if the company wants them to leave.

В чем руководство должно стать лучше?

Getting in touch with consumers and inviting honest communication instead of rewarding people for buying into the kool-aid to enter the bubble. The movie was one of the dumbest ideas of all time. The price hikes in a recession is out of touch. The old school micro managing is backwards.
