Michaels reviews

Very unfriendly. No encouragement. I didn't like how management treated the high school and college employees...I didn't want those/any employee think that is the way they should be treated...especially if they eventually go into management themselves. When putting away stock we had to note the department labels/location codes on the cases to know where the product goes and I hadn't been told that there were department codes! I often had to ask where a product went, and no, they didn't have a 'cheat sheet' with them all listed...I just had to ask and often felt really bad because I felt I was wasting time.

Poor store management, constant change of managers and none of them ever knew how to run the store or bring structure to the store. For some reason they kept hiring and hiring more people which caused the older employee's hours to be cut drastically (sometimes I would only work 4-8 hours a week). Mangers only cared about themselves and their "favorite" employees. The favorite employees would often slack off and would essentially get paid to do nothing. Requesting days off was pointless, managers never looked at employee's request (it personally happened to me). Who ever was in charge of the schedules never put into consideration about our other part-time jobs or school schedules.
