Most Disorganized, Disorienting position I've ever held anywhere - and I'm a half century old - POS Coordinator World Market Employee Review

GM is indifferent to promoting from within; GM spends 80% of time in office with 10% contact with team; GM out of touch; Poor recognition of accomplishments; Immediate recognition of any shortcoming and documents that shortcoming for future reviews (one documented shortcoming will cause ALL acheivements to be nulified during review resulting in no increase in pay); 3 minutes late to work for any reason is a write-up; DM does not know anyone's name other than GM (I worked at an office with 1000 employees, and sr. executives knew your name, or asked your name when they met you in the elevator - DM doesn't care); DM repremands GM if "TOO MUCH TASKING" is going on during open hours, but then repremands GM for not meeting schematic setup timelines, and then GM writes up supervisory team for failing to meet goals; GM training is practically non-existent - relies heavily upon "the Degree" from university to help GM; Supervisor development is a FOUR LETTER WORD; Promotion from within is random, and the "once promoted" rule applies (once promoted, no further promotions unless you transfer); GM actively discourages employee transfers (not sure if this is company wide); When hours are cut, they are always cut from the highest paid employees first, who also happen to be the seasoned, trained, knowledgable employees usually (who actually have a vested interested in having their store perform exceptionally well), and finally from the part-time staff; CEO is a number cruncher - does not have the necessary skills to understand the new millenium's "new retail" criteria (people driven, customer focused, rewards and recognition to name a few items totally missing from the mix at the store level); Metrics, metrics, metrics. Not enough room to continue.
