Tractor Supply reviews

Now lets make those ideas a reality...A training budget is a must. Three shifts for hourly team members. Two weeks for team leads would make worlds of difference. Being a home store of a District Manager that sucks the joy out of every single day makes this a job that no one would want. Every day is stressful and full of 'what will he be like today?' thoughts. Every possitive word spoken is followed by three negative words. It makes life quite depressing. The whole team feels like they are on vacation when the DM is gone!

HARD on managers. My experience showed Tractor Supply has different standards for different managers. What was good for one manager was not good for another; this was across several states and multiple district managers. Mandated to close 2 nights a week, work every weekend, hard to get time off for family vacations. Things that were supposed to happen (one weekend off a month, vacation scheduling, etc) as set forth by the company did not make it to the local level. Very small percent of payroll, we averaged 4% of gross sales and had to cut back on that even when sales were above plan. As the company has grown, it has left behind its best workers. You are now just a number to a large corporation. The CEO used to know everyone by first name, but Jim Wright does not run that style of upper level management.
