After 4 years work environment has gone from good to terrible
Pros
- Small atmosphere so you have good relationships with all your coworkers - it’s easier to communicate with less people - laid back - opportunity to learn different areas in the shop (production, customer service, etc.) - when hired I was given the impression that there would be opportunities for advancement, bonuses and pay raises
Cons
- although having a smaller staff should make it easier to communicate, that communication is lacking in the franchise where I work - the owner at this franchise sets unattainable goals which makes bonuses impossible - I’ve worked in the same position for 4 years, have had only two raises, the first was great, but the second came after getting demoted from salary to hourly (maybe to make the demotion sting a little less??)
