Lack of Care of Employees - Anonymous employee Michaels Employee Review

This company does not care for its staff. Every day with what is in the news and social media of how customers have been verbally and often times physically abusive to retail and service workers, this company does not protect its employees, while knowing the risky situations we are put in for simply following and enforcing the rules and company-mandated policies. They give in to customer demands without so much as a follow-up from – or helping hand for staff. The pay is overwhelmingly low compared to similar titles and responsibilities in other industries (all the while being customer facing), the lack of staff while also having higher expectations and pushing an increase of work in the wake of Party City and JoAnn Fabrics closures.
