Pros

Good people at the store level, for the most part and helping customers.

Cons

Stores are in a constant state of disrepair. Most have broken or inadequate heating and cooling, coolers and freezers that breakdown multiple times throughout the year, leaky roofs, out dated and broken fixtures throughout. You can't oder basic supplies even if you are completely out and need them to complete an assignment. Reach G.E.T. ( Greet, Engage and Thank) which does work to improve customer satisfaction and sales but they will not invest in staffing in order to accomplish this. Only allowed one cashier and on MOD per shift, which means we can greet and thank but the meat of the sandwich, Engage can not happen. We're given the number of tasks that we would have if fully staffed and expected to achieve the impossible daily. They have some of the best Management teams of any place I've worked but they are overwhelmed and exhausted, belittled and unappreciated.
