Pros

Ummm nothing really? Other than competitive pay compared to other job opportunities in the area.

Cons

Even though employees EARN vacation hours, the GM would dictate to when you could take them. You couldn't take vacation while someone else was gone, but the GM was such a hypocrite and would always take her vacation on busy weekends. She would also tell you that you couldn't take your vacation a certain day then take her vacation on the same day you wanted. She would also get EVERY holiday off and make her least favorite employees work. Favoritism was a HUGE problem. Most employees used their phones and had poor customer service. Once a customer would complain about how rude they were the GM would stick up for them because they were "favorites". There were only a few employees that got treated very poor (myself included) and if we made one minor mistake we got yelled at and talked down to like some sort of animal being scolded. Breaks were almost non existent to the non favorite employees while the favorites got to take 30 minute breaks and never leave time for anyone else to eat. So that left some people eating at the register(which is against company policy). Employees would disappear for long periods of time and go hide in the bathroom on their phones, even on our busy days and weekends. DRAMA!! One thing that will come with working at some stores is lots of drama. Especially working with all women who act like teenage girls. ****STUDENTS: They will work with your school schedule, but once it starts conflicting with their schedule or their favorite employees schedules they won't change it for you to be able to attend school.

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.
