Pluspunten

• I created so many close bonds within my merchandise processing team over the span of a couple years, I loved how physical it was and how everyday was a new challenge • I got to experiment in various different areas of operations and sales (except for custom spaces, yuck)

Minpunten

• No raise this year which prompted me to swiftly make my exit (especially after hearing the layoff news from other stores) • Management were either micro-managing or not managing at all • Pay was/is abysmal • Whenever the higher ups would visit, they would only greet those with seniority • Technology was terrible, especially SIMS which is the most terrible inventory management tool in the world, made performing cycle counts a living nightmare • got to meet a new version of a Karen every day on the sales floor • turnover rate is high high high we were never able to keep new hires for long • the higher ups are so out of touch it’s embarrassing I can’t believe keeping up with satish is an actual real life thing

Pluspunten

Everyone from director level on down in my department was great. Very collaborative. Gave you autonomy to do and try new things.

Minpunten

Where do I start…Sr. Leadership is TERRIBLE. I mean absolutely horrific. No direction and plans were changing at the drop of a dime after the BB&B “merger”. You could feel the shift in the culture, just NASTY attitudes and taking the employees for granted. The new CEO and the rest of Sr. level execs acted like everyone was just expendable workhorses. They touted reopening the headquarters cafe as some awesome benefit so they could bring people back to the office full time. If you’re going to be bullish and require everyone back, have some guts and just do it. But don’t act like a cafe is some life changing benefit to get everyone excited. Anyway, blind leading the blind. The merit increase or raises - non existent. No 401k match. Nothing positive because the company is so broke. The new store concept sounds a mess. Save yourself and don’t even apply, let alone accept an offer. Joel Bines is no longer the CEO. He was a great guy and I think he had great ideas. Marcus Lemonis is the new CEO and I would give him a thumbs down.
