Thank you for sharing your feedback, although I am sorry to hear that’s how you feel. Our leadership team takes a lot of pride in developing our team and giving them opportunities to grow here at UncommonGoods. Because of that, we have a lot of managers who started out as seasonal team members and have grown into their current management roles. We see that as being a really great thing for many reasons. We recognize that our management team has opportunities to improve (as does any management team) and in 2017 we’re going to put more emphasis on developing our leaders. We always hate to see a great manager leave but we make it a point to part ways kindly. As the head of HR, I can tell you that I'm not aware of any managers who have been asked to leave the company since I've been here. If you have more information to share about your specific concerns, we would really like to hear it. Please come by the HR office or email HR@uncommongoods.com and someone will reach out to you. Thanks again for giving us an opportunity to hear your feedback.
