Pluspunten

- Middle managers were supportive and driven. I felt like I was being worked very hard, but I believe they made me better marketers. - Management was very good about encouraging you to really own your work. This was probably in part due to everyone being a bit overworked, and managers needing to pass down some work, but as non-management, it offered me the opportunity to get a ton of higher-level experience. - The people I worked with were some of the coolest people with the most elite talent I've had the pleasure of working with. The culture of the marketing team was unmatched. - The facility was very nice with spacious, modern cubicles. There's a nice cafeteria on site, although you do have to pay for the food. The Summit Pointe area around the corporate building is very nice, with many walkable options for brunch, lunch, happy hour, exercise, and more. - VERY diverse company--it didn't matter your gender, color, title, etc. You had a place at the table and your ideas were heard. If someone said something and it was "shot down" it was because it was not necessarily the best thing for the business.

Minpunten

- Recent senior leadership turnover led to a growing feeling of instability, stagnation, and unrest on the marketing team. Half the team had quit in the last six months before I left, including very long-tenured directors. - The growth opportunities were "there" but seemingly only given to external candidates, despite internal candidates' talent and desire for growth and experience in other fields. Of the recently vacated roles that HAD been backfilled before I left, none of those new hires were internal. This refusal to let current employees grow was the most frustrating part of my time there. - I thought the titles and pay were skewed--coordinators did specialist work; specialists did management work; managers did director-level work and so on. And nobody got paid appropriately for all the work they did. I did not find the salaries very competitive at all.

Pluspunten

Leadership that cares about their Associates. Opportunities to grow skills and knowledge via trainings and cross-team ventures. Employee Relation Groups that are important to a diverse workforce.

Minpunten

Pay is lacking for the experience gained. Annual performance review is not indicative of the work put it. Follow up on issues is not consistent. Some employees are disciplined for small infractions while others are provided zero repercussions for blatant failure to abide by the rules.

Pluspunten

Working at Dollar Tree provided valuable hands-on leadership experience across every aspect of retail operations. I strengthened my skills in inventory management, merchandising, freight planning, staffing, customer service, compliance, and operational execution. The fast-paced environment challenged me to think quickly, prioritize effectively, and develop my team while delivering results. The relationships I built with my associates and customers were by far the most rewarding part of the job.

Minpunten

The workload often exceeded the labor hours provided, making it challenging to consistently meet operational expectations. Store managers were frequently expected to handle multiple responsibilities while working with lean staffing levels. Facility and equipment issues sometimes took longer than expected to resolve, and support from upper management could be inconsistent. While the job offered valuable experience, maintaining work-life balance could be difficult during peak freight and seasonal periods.
