Build-A-Bear reviews

Working here can be humiliating. The general public is very rude at times. I’ve been talking to a guest as I’ve been told to, only to be looked at awkwardly and completely ignored. Can be dehumanising at times. As Bear builders we only do what we’re told to do- which is greet every guest, and ensure they know the deals, ensure they have a good time..

Management was very poor and unorganized Hiring managers (district managers) often choose outside hires over established employees Frequently felt like I was doing more than required and fulfilling certain roles for my boss Management staff often got stuck with the worst hours, while upper leadership avoided the workload Lack of fairness and support from leadership
