Worse career choice I ever made. - Avis employé Store Manager RadioShack

Salaried store managers are required to work six days a week at 65+ hours. Full-time hourly employees are given 32 (sometimes as low as 29) hours a week. Part-time hourly employees can receive as low as 4 hours a week (or sometimes not be scheduled at all in a week). Most of the work falls on salaried managers. Upper management is unavailable and unreachable (district manager not answering/returning phone calls or replying to emails). As a store manager you are told to hit unrealistically high sales targets- or else be replaced. You will not be given any instructions or suggestions how to obtain the targets, just threatened with your job if you don't attain them. Store managers are expected to work from home by being on conference calls that can last at least an hour or more. Calls are twice a week or more. The workload is astronomical! There are currently checklists for checklists and pages of them! In a given day there is not enough time to do everything they want done, and they still pile more work on the store. You have to find ways to help customers and get the enormous amount of work done. Bonuses don't happen (they change the rules all the time). You never make the amount of money they say you will when you were interviewed. You end up living and breathing for a company that clearly thinks very little of you.
