Great industry; Misguided strategy - Anonymous employee 7-Eleven Employee Review

Exciting retail business that is changing fast. Very hands on atmosphere with a relatively flat management structure that allows many opportunities to impact real world operations. Field staff have great latitude to schedule their time and dedicate resources to the store issues they find most important. Wonderful opportunities to learn basic management skills: if you can teach a bunch of minimum wage workers to keep a store running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, you can probably manage just about anything.
