Interesting venues and work; disappointing bosses

Sales lead

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The venues are very interesting - museums, aquariums, and zoos (among others). And, there's the ability to transfer locations if moving. Feels unlike working for a corporation and more as a continuation of the venue. Because of the venues, the work is fun. The upper management (as in the CEO, etc) are personable and the store "culture" is fair and balanced. They seem to practice what they preach.

Cons

The lower management (as in Store Directors and their assistants) are unmotivated. They don't practice the "culture" message of EN. HR does not side with the employees - even those who have reliably worked for EN longer than the management.

HORRIBLE COMPANY TO EVER WORK FOR!!!!

Cashier

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I guess the only Pro would be it helps you realize your worth as an employee and how you deserve much better.

Cons

Managers could careless about you and the effort you put into this company! I've been working for this company for 4 years and have seen a lot of corrupt things going on. There is no advancement in this company i stood at the sale position title for 4 years and yet know more then all the sales leads and cashier leads. They hire unqualified people into the higher positions and expect a sales assosicate to train them when they should be the one promoted!!!! Honestly one of the worse companies to work for its full of shady business. Managers and store director don't do anything except be on thier phones and try to be your friend then talk behind your back and talk about other employees infront of you and laugh about it. The managers only care about you selling the PWPs and when you do go above and beyond they don't care.

Management likes to bring in personal friends Management likes to string you along with idea of promotion but never confirms you'll get it or takes steps to. Seems like they do it to make you stay.
