Pros

Good coworkers, and no micromanagement from team leads

Cons

Total mismanagement from the store director. Wayyyyyy too much product is ordered, and workers are unable to keep up. Trucks are routinely late. By the time the truck arrives, the shift is almost over. The work therefore cannot be completed, but the current store director (very incompetent) blames the team leads and workers. No attempt to get ordering under control whatsoever. The freezers and coolers fill with backstock that never gets worked, and more and more piles on with the excessive ordering. Freezers/coolers are routinely packed beyond capacity, and the store director again blames the workers.

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
