Cons
Supervisors will talk bad about other associates behind their back. Age Biased. Focuses on promoting older generation first before younger no matter the skill level. Low moral: Associates feel they have been stabbed in the back multiple times (Associate of the quarter is considered a fixed joke) Low pay: Low pay all the way up the ladder. Hard to get motivated when a raise to supervisor is under 20/hour. Managers also talk about how low they are paid. Blame game: Instead of figuring out a solution to an issue; Managers and supervisors blame associates. Upper management vetoes lower managements unanimous votes. Improper balance and placement of staffing; focuses more staff in hard goods and services. Places easily angered employees in high pressured customer environment. Favoritism: Manager provides gifts to his favorite ( older generation ) employees on multiple occasions. Manager hides from any employee conflict. If he is cornered to address an issue, he will sit there without saying a word (Associates made this a game on how long he will stay silent when talking to him)
