We are concerned to hear about your experience with certain teams, including toxic behavior and lack of work life balance. We want our employees to have the best experience at work, which is why we run regular surveys where associates can share honest feedback on team culture, leadership and day to day challenges. These insights are reviewed carefully by our HR teams and leadership and are taken seriously to address gaps and reinforce healthier work environments. Your feedback highlights how important it is for employees to feel supported and respected within their teams. Experiences like this help us identify where stronger accountability and cultural improvements are needed. We're continuously working on making it a better experience for our employees.
