Pros

Good pay for the job and $ 2.00 more per hour if you work the graveyard shift. You can make $16 an hour.Free cup and drinks

Cons

On a 8 hour shift you can never ever set down!!! You have 5- 10 mins to gobble up your lunch. But you better not set down while you are eating it !!!! Everything has to be done perfect or you will be fired. While I was working there i asked people how long they have been working there...and mist had not been there a year and the few that had been there longer were talking about quitting. This must tell you something. It more for someone who just wants to make some money but doesn't need to depend on a job. Also expect to drop at over $100 on certain kind of shoes, belt, kaki pants and you must buy Buc ees shirts and wear undershirts. Also you must check your schedule everyday. Because it can change. There will be weeks you work 7 & 8 days straight.You will get 2-4 days off but not always together. It can be a very fast paced job.No pay raise unless everyone gets a raise.

Pros

The employees are amazing and very kind. It’s sad they have to go through what they go through with toxic management.

Cons

The management there sucks. Most are 2 faced. They do not realize that they are in a small town and that to local people they are just a more expensive version of Walmart. Actually I would pick Walmart over this Buc-ee’s any day. I had 4 interviews with them for them not to even give a reason to why they wouldn’t hire except I was not Buc-ee’s material. If anyone knows what that means…… they micromanage everything. Employees are scared to do anything bc they never know when they will be fired at any giving second of the day. This place is suppose to be family oriented but they definitely are not…. This is a terrible place to work. You’re always in fear of loosing your job,. Money sounds good but it is not worth it if you want to keep your sanity.
