      Don’t Believe All the Awards OSJL Has Won - Store Team Leader Ocean State Job Lot Employee Review

      Store team leader
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      The schedule allows for flexibility.

      Cons

      Logistics, allocation, aisles become blocked with wrapped pallets of freight, unsafe environment. Freight doesn’t stop coming. Corporate does not listen to freight concerns. Overworked. Given a choice between staying late or go home to your family but there really isn’t a choice. No support at the store level. Most District Team Leaders don’t care to know what Store Team Leaders obstacles are during the week. It’s always “get it done, find a way”. Not a healthy environment.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      You don't experience many of the retail horror stories you would at larger chains. Management was reasonably flexible with scheduling and always took our side during customer disputes. 30% discount nice bonus too (40% on some days)

      Cons

      None that I can think of
