Hours Cut, Coworkers Mean
Hours Cut, Coworkers Mean
Lots of hours at first. I worked 40-hour weeks for the first 4 weeks, and then received cut hours with permanent staff. Near the end of the term, I was scheduled 4 hours a week.
No training. High expectations that aren’t verbalized by management. Poor scheduling. Terrible communication between corporate to management to staff. Mean and degrading coworkers. I overheard several conversations in the break room about how terrible the seasonal people were and how they hated that we were stealing their hours during the holidays. Managers don’t stick up for you in the face of conflict with members. Terrible at enforcing the mask policy for employees; some of the management team wore sheer masks or plastic guards that didn’t even cover their mouths.
Stick up for your employees. Wear a freaking, actual mask and don’t lie about employee exposure to COVID-19. Spend time training so you don’t have to spend time fixing beginner mistakes. Set growth expectations.

While it was a fairly conventional interview, it seems the selection process is very rigid. They also get your hopes up, telling you what you want to hear, and then you get disappointed when you never get a call back.
