Pros

low volume store hours are flexible most of the co-workers are nice

Cons

no training what so ever if your experienced in your department pay is equal to that of a clerk in your department (10 an hour for a 6 year experienced dairy manager) a big, and i mean big, pecking order no real advancement opportunities

Pros

Great benefits for part time workers. When I eventually quit after 10 years I had a very good employee profit sharing check mailed to me, and wasn't expecting it. I was scheduled for a lot of hours because they knew that I would work.

Cons

Basic pay for non-corporate part-time jobs at the store level. The stores can be located in neighborhoods or areas that aren't so attractive, but that seems to be the target market for most stores. Some managers can be difficult. I always go in the store to buy something in order to check it out first.
