This company focuses on the customers and money and don't care about the employees . They have zero appreciation or respect for the "little guys" actually working in the retail locations making those conmections with their customers. When upper management comes onsite they talk about our set-up and displays and what changes they want to make to everyone execpt for us. I particularly run my own stand and it completely baffles me that they will walk around me and talk about my stand as if I am not standing there. They don't speak to us, they dont make eye contact, and they definitely don't make us feel welcomed by Fanatics. They seem very unorganized and refuse to hire more staff. All tthey care about is the dollar of which they intend on making no matter what steps they need to take to get there. I dislike that they do all purchasing without even stepping foot into our arena to understand fan needs and team culture. Our colors are red and white with emphasis on RED. Our customers rock the red. Fanatics makes that hard to do with the over use of navy and grey. It is very hard to sale and they don't hear these complaints on the everyday basis.
I like my job but not the company and have often considered leaving.
Our team won the Stanley cup this year and Fanatics made it the worst experience of my life!
