Unfair compensation for over-worked under management

Co manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I really enjoyed working with the Sales Associates, as well as my fellow co-managers. You also get a pretty decent discount, and sometimes straight up free shoes depending on what kind of promotions were going on.

Cons

Too many hours for too little pay! I worked 60-ish hours a week (only one day off) during holiday times and when I averaged out my paycheck, I was only making 9 dollars an hour! And that was during the good times. During the rest of the year, I was making less than the part-timers. As a co-manager, you only make 4% commission and a measly base pay, so in order to make any real money, you basically have to claw your way to the top. 4%!! That's 40 dollars added to your paycheck for every $1000 you sell.

Pros

The only good thing that came out of working here was the 40% off discount on shoes.

Cons

Creepy stoner manager, if you don't sell enough socks you're screwed, went two weeks without any hours, they overhire.
