Pros

I enjoy working with the customers . I enjoy making the cakes cupcakes . and stocking the shelves. i love the cleaning and i like the management but some things are alittle one sided

Cons

some times i dont believe the mangement sees what really goes on .i think to many family members are hired at one store. to much drama and back stabing among fellow workers and i dont believe or see the management putting a stop to the bullying by other associates.And lack of work ethics are very big in the deli area.Be fair with the hours And the hours could be more at least 28 to 30 hours a weak . t

Pros

They (management) can be reasonable at times, such as with your breaks and scheduling.

Cons

My current management isn't giving me enough hours to be even decently sustainable, yet they have open-shifts available that they could assign to anyone, so why not give those hours to people who are severely underscheduled? If you want your workers to work for you, treat them right and compensate them fairly, and stop expecting them to come in everytime you text them just because someone else called out, maybe you need to give the people who constantly call out less hours because they aren't being reliable, and you need to give more hours to the people who do come to work and get things done, because they've proven to be reliable and willing to come in on their assigned days.
