People aren't receiving proper training from management which could be why the store tends to appear messy occasionally. Only some associates know how to keep the store nice yet they are the ones barely being scheduled. Customers could see this and possibly look down on our store, which I understand

There is way too much drama. The store manager talks about everyone in a negative light in front of new associates, which fires up many of the people she talks about. She once called me entitled because I kept asking her for more hours. We should get better at confronting coworkers face to face.

When I was interviewed, the SM was super sweet and we got along super well. The questions were easy and I was sure I landed the job. I cannot speak for the new employees, but based on the fact that at least 15 new people have been hired, the interview was probably quite simple.

The leadership team needs to get a grip on reality. Nobody can simply rely on call outs from other people, they need a schedule so they can work their lives around work. Unfortunately working 0-1 days a week cannot help me afford insurance, gas, and food bills. Our store manager and DM don't get it.

I only look forward to going to work because of my coworkers, some of them are my best friends. I think the store manager is hiring too many people from her old job at PacSun who barely do work and even promoted one as an AM. However, many of them are genuinely kind people who care about the job.
