Hello! Thanks for submitting your feedback. We are excited to have learned of your great experience with us and glad to hear you had such a great time. We pride ourselves on being our team's favorite place to work. While our seasonal roles do not have much potential for permanency, we do look to consider our team for rehiring in other seasons if available and interested. We also look to consider our seasonal team for possible lateral opportunities and really look to key in on a positive and rewarding experience for the team, even for just season. Thank you for your time and your kind words!

Pros

Great learning experience, and decent enough pay for what it is.

Cons

Graded on performance weekly, by different people, so their wants seems to conflict. You can receive a high score for one thing and then receive lower points for the same thing by someone else. It's unnecessary.

Hi! Thank you for your feedback on your time working as part of our Customer Service Exceptions team. We are glad to hear of the positive experience you had and that the compensation was fairly met. We do have a system of monitoring performance in our Customer Service team as we hire Customer Service Coaches and look to train them on this process of assuring quality in our conversations with the customers. Due to a high volume of team members, it may be a different coach is assessing your performance week by week. However, we make sure to train our Coaches as to what standards we look for and what consistency we wish to have in the conversations with our customer. There may be a slight variation at some points but our set up allows for a unique system of reviewing and assessing these conversations. We do thank you again for your feedback though and contributions.

Hello, thank you for your feedback and for your time with us at Uncommon Goods! We strive to be our team member's favorite place to work and your feedback shows us that continues to pay off. We do understand the hours and work days can seem a bit drawn out at times, we do encourage team members use their PTO and breaks to have some time away and also attend many of our meetings, workshops or other offerings to get a fresh glance at something new. Thank you again for your feedback!
