store manager

Shoppers-Supply

I love this place. I enjoy the customers who shop here. They are very friendly and appreciate the personalized help they receive. The owners are amazing and generous people. The pay is great and I get an amazing discount. Great changes are happening here—great direction, training, and recognition. Yes, changes are happening, but it will help this amazing business grow. I am there to work hard and take care of customers. I keep busy and do my job, that's what is expected, it is what I get paid for. The management is always willing to help, answer questions, and give direction. I like the new leadership, I get recognition for my hard work all the time. I have made great friends and respect everyone who works there. I have seen people move on, but great people have come on board. that makes it great every day. 

The store duties in general was constantly stocking shelves and pricing inventory.
Management is always changing. very unstable - Owners are great upper management not so great. culture is pretty weak. after 30 days of employment most employees were dissatisfied.  As the Uhaul Manager, my job was pretty much a stand alone business inside Shopper Supply. The best part of the job was the free food once it expired and employee discounts and the direct deposit of our paycheck. The hardest part of job was dealing with incompetent younger management. Many were in their teens with little to no management experience that didn't even own a car.

This place used to have a “family” environment until a new manager was brought in and they fired a bunch of loyal employees and tons quit because of it. Another new manager was hired who does not seem to truly care about employees unless their lives are dedicated to the job (ex: gives less hours to employees with limited schedules and also threatens to fire you if you need to call out or take time off). Pay is low, we are always short staffed, and tons of new rules do not make this place very friendly. Disappointed in the turn this company is taking especially for employees who have stuck with them for many years with little to no incentive to stay besides the previous work environment and welcoming employees

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing really. It used to be management but the owners fired everyone. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything. You are expected to be fast not able to actually help customers. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very conservative. Too many people call out and when the people who do are reprimanded they will threaten to sue and are allowed back.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Constantly working on responsibilities of others. No time to get your own work done. Always covering shifts of call outs.

I would come in and figure out where my manager needed me at that time. Mostly i worked in the clothing department because they sold boots and I was very good at selling boots. Also I was a cashier, always handling money and at the end of my shift as a cashier the drawer was always counted. I learned a lot being a cashier and handling money all the time. I got to be very involved there and the only reason I had to leave was because I moved far from the store.

Great place for the needs of the customers we took care of.  Is a great place for growth for young people to develop work and life skills.
Owners are always trying to improve and make the company a bigger and better place for everyone staff and customers alike.
Very good good staff discount program !!

Nothing but respect for owners -very nice people. also nothing but respect for main mgr of store...great guy!. lower management  is political bs not all but most. Overall this is a great place for high scohol  and college kids to get their feet wet in the work field. i give it over all a 4 star place to work.

Shoppers Supply management team is stellar in directing tasks evenly, flexible in scheduling shifts, flexible with outside activities not related to work, and positive feedback towards their employees. The culture is pumped and productive, hardworking, and eager to satisfy customers. 

Started as a cashier and worked very hard to get promoted to office doing paperwork and totals then promoted to office manager. Bomgaars bought Shoppers Supply so no longer needed office help so did not want to go backwards for my career so found my next job. But the greatest place to work I learned a lot working there.

customer service is usually the main focus, sometimes to the point of ignoring what should be done. 
All in all though if you can deal with everything around you its a good job to have.
