Corporate is disorganized and self centered, their expectations are delusional and the fleet is so small they micromanage easily. There’s favorite stores, and they’re the only ones who get attention from anyone above the regional managers (who from my experience are amazing people). They only care about the big money stores. The smaller stores are regularly looked over, ridiculed, and their wins are assumed to be flukes. The head of IT is actually the rudest person I’ve ever had the displeasure of speaking to. If a smaller volume store misses goals, they won’t accept that the economy sucks and instead pressures managers and teams to do better when most of us are burnt out from the holidays still.
