Pros

I loved the customers the most, they were friendlier and more understanding when glitches would occure from the old registars, LOL. I would then say the actual company is next, very understanding when time off needed in an emergency or short notice. Corporate was wonderful with prompt attention to paycard issues down to ordering items that our customers wanted in stock in the store.

Cons

They allow D.M's to come into the store suspend someone until further notice without conducting a full investigation about the problem at hand. Then to top it off u keep callin to find out information on what's going on with ur job and no one can tell u anything. After a few months you decide to file for unemplyment and they want to object to paying cause u were told u were fired. Unemployment contacts you to have a phone interview so they investigate more than Dollar Tree. Well I won my case fortunately and I didn't do the horrible thing that they said I did. Oh, yea, I didn't steal 2 items totaling $2.14.

Pros

They generally work with your school schedule, so for someone looking to just work part time (that's all of their non-management employees, although they may schedule you 36+ hrs) it works for a short time being.

Cons

The shifts are short. They do NOT provide annual reviews (which are what lead you to raises) even though annual reviews are corporate policy. You're usually under staffed because sales are too low to have more than one manager and one sales associate when closing. Store politics/cliques are way too prevalent and if you're not in with the right crowd, your work life will to put it frankly...suck. The only full time people are management and honestly, they don't get paid enough for what they do even if some of them lack common knowledge to even be in the position they're in.
