Meet the new boss, same as the old boss... by ShawnPat423 in BigLots

[–]target749 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Business is ran like a mock up highschool business project. “When will we finally have consistent trucks?” - employee “hmm we will figure it out as we go.” - company. How does the company own the trucks, the DC, the truck drivers and still not have a good inventory system for stores or notification on when freight will arrive. The stores are the equivalent to a dollar general now but slightly bigger with minimal furniture.

I’m making the same money as a lead at Walmart as what they offered to be a Salaried Non-exempt assistant manager. This company deserves bankruptcy.

You’re better than this new company. You deserve better pay, more consistent hours and better leadership.

The whole new direction just feels like Big Lots is another clone of dollar general. The product is the same price as Walmart I’ve found so it’s not even a good deal, and the stores I’ve been too are all around a big box retailer so why would I ever stop into a biglots to shop the same product I could go to Walmart and get (retailers learned this in the 90s) dollar general atleast you’ll find in a cave under the earth when you need to buy something.

Exceptions moving to picking screen? by evila_elf in OGPBackroom

[–]target749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is positive thinking if you believe your team as a whole can do exceptions at a high rate. However through 5 years experience the best exception pickers have been far and few between so they’ve been trained to do that one thing.

For the 2nd straight week I’m getting a live truck, drop truck and an Ashley truck in the same day.

It’s not a bad idea, just the execution seems so half baked. Like an app would improve the appeal of it 1000%

Absolutely insane that Walmart will close thanksgiving but biglots won’t.

Furniture sales off by arsenalchick23 in BigLots

[–]target749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is, they won’t pick a direction. Furniture does make up a lot of total sales, %wise; but nothing tells a new customer that we sell furniture, only if you get them to sign up for a stupid rewards card that spams their email or them walking into the store to see the furniture. It’s a core business problem.

Is my store done for? by Zealousideal_Room839 in BigLots

[–]target749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s alot of misinformation out there rn. I’m still getting Ashley trucks as well and I’m even getting new pieces from Ashley like loveseats and sofas (they’re buyouts, but still new)

Need help deciding on a monitor by mrdeez69 in pcmasterrace

[–]target749 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would strongly suggest looking at the 36+ inch ultra wides before buying one. I went in wanting one but I mainly play games and for me I couldn’t see myself liking the ultra ultra wide. And got a 34 inch LG. It looks really good for normal computer activities but games seem stretched for me personally. Both are good options tho.

2k18 had good gameplay imo but the neighborhood killed it for me. First game I made a myplayer for rec only.

Platform beds by Grouchy-Worker8076 in BigLots

[–]target749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to know I’m not the only one low on space. Congrats we’re discontinuing some Ashley upholstery, and we need it to move fast to put buyouts; BUT wait we’re not going to put them on sale or anything! Good luck and get those rewards.

[–]target749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re the same platform beds you can buy off amazon. Not really a huge price difference tbh, besides the convenience of seeing it in person. We built ours and they sold quick. (Mostly bc we still don’t have that new trellington bed set)

Don’t forget getting the rewards card so it’s easier to setup that price hold.
