• Lack of company vision, direction, and integrity. No overall mission to drive employees. Clueless CEO that had no idea what was happening within styling or buying.
• Siloed departments which lead to constant misunderstandings, confusion, and repeated work.
• Time and money spent finding solutions for roadblocks that don't actually exist and a complete lack of understanding of the actual roadblocks.
• Leaders company-wide were constantly out of the loop - BIG company changes would be announced without proper direction given to leaders ending up with more confusion, chaos, and low employee morale.
•Low pay and no actual reward for exceeding goals. You just work yourself into the ground knowing there will be no payoff or career development (the only way to development was to leave).
• Micromanaged work schedule and timekeeping system for full-time "specialty" employees with multiple overlapping responsibilities who by the nature of the work needed the flexibility to accomplish goals.
