Too much growth too quickly - Assistant Store Leader Kwik Trip Employee Review

Rapid growth over the last several years resulting in the original culture of KT dying away, increasingly replaced by typical corporate 'profits-over-people' attitude. Cult-like atmosphere at meetings that extol corporate virtues and exult the company. If you rise up into a store leadership role, expect poor-to-nonexistent work/life balance depending on your area. Retail is increasingly crunched for labor hours while work loads rise and burnout even amongst the rank and file is prevalent, yet profits have never been better (sound familiar?). District management is a mixed bag ranging from excellent to disinterested and willfully blind to conditions in the trenches.
