Work/life balance - Store Manager Family Farm and Home Employee Review

Company is highly focused on the their values. The communication and support are above average.

It’s not really a con as it goes with any retail, but the hours are often focused on the highest sales volume.

The employee discount is decent.

I had 1 hour of training and left to myself to figure out the rest. Asking for help seems to be a problem with most co-workers. Management stated this was a close, tight, group of employees during interview. On day one it was apparent this was a lie. It was very clear there was friction between the members of management and the rest of the staff. Employees stating "I should have just called off," "she really (explicit language) me off" "I wish people would just do their jobs!" So definitely a negative work atmosphere with clear favoritism. Management has zero urgency to take care of problems causing employee and customer distress. Examples would be lack of change in the drawer and inability to get answers or assistance in a reasonable amount of time. There's a lack in proper scheduling or organization, especially for events. There's a ton of finger pointing with little to no accountability.
