My store manager is relatable, personable, trustworthy, and hard working. I respect him immensely.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Most of us have built good relationships. There are a few that are pretty negative, but the world is kind of bleak right now, so I can understand why.

What makes you most happy at work?

When I don't have a customer stealing merchandise, being rude, or protesting about sales, pricing, or signage. If you can avoid those things, you've had a good night. Oh and if you can get a return label from shipment/pickups scan and go through, you're doing really good.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Being understaffed has myself and others doing double the work than what we're compensated for. The company NEEDS to raise the pay or they will continue to see poor morale, poor hires, and high turnover. Base raises off merit not percentages and raise pay to recruit quality candidates. Do better.

What are some of the best things about your team?

I have some great kids working with me. They're just starting out in life so they're okay with low wages. They're hopeful and energetic, they're hard working and fun kids to be around. High school, college kids, and retirees are all we can afford. Anyone who has few to no financial commitments.

What did you like most about the interview process?

My manager was not trying to rush through. You could tell he was really trying to get to know me and see if I would fit the store's atmosphere. He wasn't just trying to hire a body like some big box companies. He was friendly and relaxed, it felt like a conversation rather than an a test.
