Pros
Before new structure changes * set schedule 7-3 Monday- Friday. Didn’t work a weekend for 6 months and that’s awesome for retail! *creative freedom with setting up shops for Floor set *freedom to work extra hours for overtime
Cons
Everything after restructure .... While I know many retail stores are struggling, (as I’ve worked for many in the past) I’ve never been expected even in the toughest times to cut hours so low to where you can’t even run your store...as we all know the maintenance to keep up with product/ recovery/ and over all cleanliness of the store takes many hands. In a matter of three weeks since the drastic cuts In payroll our store is in ruins.... we’ve been closing with a minimum of at least 15 racks of go backs, nothing is organized , brand shops are in the most disarray...... we’ve also had to terminate full time managers, part leads. Some remaining managers had to take pay cuts. What sucks the most, is our customers are frustrated in us for it being this way, assuming we’re lazy or we don’t care but the truth is we do, but when you only allow 4 people to work on a weekend we can’t get it all done.
