Pros

Hours are definately there, be your own boss and work by yourself as long as you get the main cleaning and stocking tasks completed for your shift. Average pay, good benefits if you're full time. co workers are awesome to train with, very friendly and down to earth. Comfortable environment, no real stresses when you know what you're doing.

Cons

Lousy scheduling, especially for part time. Very inconsistant, hiring DURING store makeover from Exxon with new system while everyone stands around and argues over procedures and protocol. Communication from upper management is very lackluster and in dire need for improvement. They certainly dont seem very adamant or sincere with getting you trained and certified by any professional standard. No actual performance reviews of any sort, contrary to what is initially promised. No real direction from management is exsistant, so unless you are working with a seasoned employee, more often than not you will find yourself standing around clueless or having to improvise just to appear busy.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
