It was a lot off favoritism going on. & it was very noticeable.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad you appreciated the stability of a full-time schedule with benefits.
That said, we take concerns about favoritism seriously. We aim to create a fair and inclusive work environment where every team member feels valued and heard. We actively work on ways to strengthen transparency and ensure growth opportunities are equitable across the team.
We also appreciate your advice to management and will continue to find ways to support every team member at all levels. If you have any additional feedback, we’d welcome the opportunity to hear it. Wishing you the best in your next chapter!
Too many unnecessary, confusing levels of management and far too many leads, most of whom lack the patience for such positions, especially during holiday time.

One of our guiding principles is We are Always Learning and your feedback contributes directly to this business objective. We review our team/department structures annually to address concerns like you have expressed in regard to too many levels of management and make adjustments where we find issue. Customer service is hard work with many demands as we know you understand and patience is paramount for all facets of the role. This feedback provides us an opportunity to stress that this level of composure is required and perhaps supply some ways to address expectations of fellow team members, direct reports and customers. We also acknowledge that systems and process should always be scrutinized for efficiencies and the cyclical nature of cause and effect of when they are not so efficient - we agree this is foundational to our business and have a reliable product management and tech team to assist in developing the best internal tools to support our teams. We are consistently striving to do better in these areas and appreciate the accountability your feedback requires of us.
