Pros

Easier work environment, familiar faces of regular customers who I got to know by name, friendly work staff

Cons

Not structured enough, rules were not enforced, minimal pay, not enough scheduled hours, called in on short notice. I loved my job at Casey's. It was friendly & familiar. The everyday duties weren't very complicated. Unloading the truck was laborous one day a week. Where the job became difficult was when I was promoted to management. There is not enough training on how to deal with customer concerns and all the things that can go wrong in a day. I.e. the cooler breaking down or a gas pump problem. There were too many gray areas of management. Too many responsibilities for not enough pay. And if you are management in one of the many 24-hr stores, you are on-call 24 hours. Most of this falls upon the assistant's shoulders since the Store Manager is salary, they don't want to be bothered in their free time, off the clock.

Pros

Its close to my home

Cons

Corporate dosent care. They dont maintain equipment or property leave employees to suffer the back lash when customers can't get gas or a slushy. The ac was broken during a heat advisory where feels like was in the low hundreds. They do not allow breaks. Somedays you may go 7 or 8 hours with out even a restroom break.
