Here goes my list:
-Poor upper management.
-Training in any position is mediocre.
-Incentives with in stores is poor and does not produce motivation.
-Communication between upper management and HR is terrible.
-As management is asked to "performance manage" people out so there is no severance due to employees.
-Bullying from upper management ( job threats, performance questioned with no real review, mental and emotional abuse)
-No recognition for sales performance, or anything that goes above and beyond for that matter.
-No regular meetings between managers and staff.
-No assistance with issues unless repetitive communication.
-Made to rely on managers with in other stores to solve issues brought to DM's (district manager) attention.
-No real record of DM's time management.
-Told multiple times under DM's supervision to go against policy (hush, hush)
-DM's discussing confidential employee issues with anyone.
-HR has a lack of involvement with in the company.
-Wrongful dismissals
-No follow up on "performance"
-Brand standards are based on DM's opinion of the manager, You are liked, you pass, you are not liked... well you are targeted!
-No follow up after "complaints" are made to head office, therefore the store not knowing what was done wrong or what they could improve on.
-Having to deal with no paperwork to back up decisions made by the company
-No performance reviews
-Poor people skills by DM's
-16 hour work days with no help or emotional support
-Contradicting statements passed down by DM's to multiple staff, which create confusion and distrust.
-Dm's telling remaining staff the WRONG reason you are no longer employed creating slander about former employees.
