If it were not for the benefits and the people I worked with, I would have quit much sooner. - Bookseller Half Price Books Employee Review

Bonus checks have been dwindling while workload increasing. Expect micromanagement, unfair criticism and never praise if you work at my store, the turnover rate for my store is staggering large for a "hippie" company, over 25 people have quit or were fired in less than four years, NOT counting temp workers. Worst management I've worked under. Management was always unclear as to how not to tell customer that their crap was garbage, why their offers were low or why we needed their identification to process buys. Extreme fear of offending customers comes at the cost of undermining employees morale. Don't let its hippie roots fool you, this is a very corporate company, complete with multiple job reviews per year and harsh punishment. Everything you do will be put under a microscope, you will be surprised what comes up under these reviews.
