Vantaggi

Decent benefits package: 401K, pension, medical for full time associates.

Svantaggi

Poor upper managment. They hire executives/regional managers from outside the company that do not even have basic optical knowledge! Very apparent that upper management are just puppets of THEIR bosses. Very focused on sales and numbers vs associate satisfaction. Don't they know that happy associates = better results? We do not get credit when the store is doing well, but are beaten down when we are not making our goal. The summit we went to early this year was littered with false promises: More money in training (they just cut our payroll), getting feedback from associates (never done), better pay (they are eliminating middle management.) It becomes very stressful when the regional department comes to visit. They come in for a few hours, and nit pick the store to death, never satisfied with our "behaviors." Also there is a lot of turnover in the company; its a passive-agressive statement to the company, but they see it as they were not "brand right" to begin with vs. the company is doing something wrong.

Vantaggi

when I first started it was a very employee based company. Great discounts, great benefits. Regional managers were swift to help if we had questions and offer support

Svantaggi

Since last year the environment has changed vastly. They no longer care about the employees and only want results. They have raised prices and insurances dont cover as well as they used to and they expect the managers to just force people to buy. If you dont make your monthly goals youre put on a PIP and the Regionals are constantly threatening you to make them. The work life balance does not exist. There is a group chat with your fellow store managers hosted by the Regional and if its your day off they still expect a response. I know it comes from the top down but the micromanaging has gotten so awful. Down to the minute you must be scheduled correctly. I have been here for 3 years and have never had a positive review even though our store has exceeded its goals. Doesnt matter to them, they expect more and more. They raise goals constantly and the only answer they have for making sure we hit those goals is no one leaves, even though they can get the same product from a competitor at a much lower cost.
