This review follows the detailed rating on the left column. Trying to be as objective as possible. Business model: Owners are obviously good at making money and keeping a store looking good. No question about that. Management Skills: Lacking in respect to presence on the floor and connection to employee dynamics between co-workers and superiors. Lack of responsibility for employees actions and words (including full timers) Values: Due to lack of responsibility of employees and floor presence, seemingly lack of respect Communication: Little to no communication to part time employees. Feedback/Recognition: You know if you have done a bad job, but don't know if you've none a good job. "No news is good news" applies here. Pride: Meh...it's a job. Engagement: Lacking due to lack of presence and poor treatment from department managers (who employer is responsible for). Work Space: Good enough when not busy Atmosphere: Poor. Seems as if no one is happy with their job except employer. Recruitment: Poor. Employer does not seem to have any involvement in the recruitment of employees. No responsibility taken for useless/lazy employees. Tasks: The same tasks everyday. Teamwork: Great teamwork between almost all part time employees and some full timers, but lacking with most full time employees. Organization: Usually pretty good Compensation: Set by union and not employer to my knowledge. No comment, not relevant. Schedule: Unreliable. Hours between employees differs extremely. Stress: Depending on time of year and sales. Dollar sales are high stress. Work/family life balance: None. As comment stated earlier (assuming comment by owner or department manager due to way it is worded) they are there to run a business, not be a friend. Can lead to disconnect between employee and employees. Advancement: None. Recommendable: Recommend to students who only work weekends and nights, but not for people who are available 24/7 General opinion (subjective): Employer needs to take more responsibility on how the department managers treat their employees. Some full timers are lazy and/or disrespectful which negatively impacts the work ability/desire of the employees. Employer is friendly when is on floor, enjoyable to work with for the most part. Biggest complaint is department managers.
