Pros

When I first started, I had a really great manager/boss. I worked with a fair few awesome co-workers and the work was not really that hard, plus, for the area I was in..I felt the pay was decent. Though, I was also told that, for that area, the pay = minimum wage elsewhere.

Cons

So many cons. Which is sad, because, when I first started, I LOVED my job! I'm not even sure where to start. -They transferred the manager that was there when I first started, that set everything else in motion. Mostly. -The Assistant Manager was lazy and useless. -The manager they hired after they transferred the other, did not know how to deal with our store since it was different than their own (they had a smaller gas station store, we had more of a convenient store with hot food, coffee, etc). -The assistant manager was lazy and useless, and was no help to the new manager. individual also threw the former manager under the bus, claiming he didn't train her in this or that -The other manager either got fired or quite, I don't recall. We had an acting manager from a different store. -This manager, whom I had originally thought was pretty nice...was basically a wolf in sheeps clothing. Not in a good way. -Assistant Manager continued to be lazy and useless, and after speaking up a fair few times, was still able to retain her position... -I started getting blamed for things that I was not actually trained on, and then blamed for things not being done that I was, in my position, not allowed to do. Things that only managers and assistants can do. -I really started to hate my job -They hired a new guy to be the new manager, but he was in training -Acting manager liked to run her mouth and talk crap about employee's behind their backs, heard her doing so about me to the manager in training. -Acting manager got fired for forging assistant managers name on documents that the assistant manager never signed cause "she didn't know" she was supposed to (which, she did, cause she had before..) -Assistant manager then thought she was going to become the new manager. -Assistant manager then went from knowing nothing to apparently knowing her job...without further training -I worked mainly graveyard, and I would come in at night to NOTHING being done that the assistant manager was supposed to do if it was her shift. There are times she would work my graveyard on my nights off..I would come in the next day and things had not been done for a few days. -Assistant manager started training other employee's to be slackers. -Assistant manager cared more about flirting with guys than her job. -Assistant manager cared more about her phone than her job. -I got sick of this job, went from loving it to hating it, and stopped caring. I ended up quitting with no notice. -Assistant manager was still there a month and a half or so after I quit.. -...Not sure if assistant manager is still there, would not surprise me if she was
