Seattle Mariners reviews

Inconsistent treatment of employees by management. A lot of younger employees were very unprofessional but treated much better and given more hours than more professional and fully capable employees who had been on the team longer. If you don’t volunteer to work late or do the crappy shifts regularly, forget about being scheduled for longer than a 3 hour shift or asked to help out with special events. Felt like management was threatened by other female presence on the team and most women who worked with me ended up quitting due to the hostility. Team culture definitely was iffy - younger employees started a lot of drama and were outright mean to others and proper disciplinary action wasn’t taken. Had to work with coworkers who made sexist jokes to me and to others and felt my manager didn’t take it seriously.

The turnover at the top of the Game Day operations management the last two years has resulted in declining morale, feeling like they are penny pinching on basic things, not keeping promises by mid-level managers, and in general not working efficiently or collaboratively. Lack of emphasis on The Mariner Way has resulted in missed deadlines, late in providing resources essential to the positions (handbooks, uniforms, etc) and overall lack of respect for staff who have held part time positions serving guests for up to 20 years. It's too bad, because even if the team isn't doing as well as we would hope, you've always had a great time at the ball park because you're being assisted by people who love their jobs. And many of these people have had tremendous professional experiences in life, upper level executives, managers, etc. They may be retired but they certainly don't deserve to be treated like they don't know anything or are incapable of making decisions. Hopefully this management team will find their stride, but it's hard to feel real positive about it.
