Pros

Straightforward expectations, easy to understand and complete the daily responsibilities of stocking. Fellow employees and the managers are nice to work with. At this location the folks seem to care about doing a good job for the most part... which helps.

Cons

3:30 - 4 am wake-up time to be to work by 5 am comes early... hahaha! I knew that when I signed on. The option of going FT was available, but the benefits are pretty poor. FT pay was only $1.50 more per hour than the base PT pay. Livable wage in NE is around $27/hr. and base pay for FT was offered at $17.50/hr.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
