"I worked for Sears for over 22 years, which was fulfilling, learning, and all around a pleasure."
Posted 16 years ago in Citrus Heights, CA
Sears Employee

"Working at the West Covina Sears was the worst mistake of my life!! The backstabbing, favoritism, & lack of hours were the backbone of this place. Just about everyone I had originally started working with was all pushed out. The only person working from opening till at least 1 pm was me(there were 3 floors). Didn't have the need to go to the gym when I spent my whole shift running up & down between all the floors(being paged for different floors was always fun or looking in the back when I got paged) The KidsVantage was a joke for employees god forbid one of us to use it but have a customer bring something from so long ago you don't recognize it is No Problem. Fitting rooms were disgusting not from just the amount of clothes but from nasty customers p**ing, sh*tting, or vomiting or the cherry on top fuc**ng in them!!"

"Sears Flagship store serves the MicroSoft Campus community which is very diverse with much foreign influence. This was a difficult market to satisfy but, it was the goal to strive to embrace every point-of-view and give it all you've got to empathize and make customers the number one reason why we work there."
