Thank you for sharing your experience as a Cashier. We're glad to hear you had amazing management at your store! We love our Independent Operators and how hard they work to make employees feel like "family". As you know, our stores are independently owned and operated. I would encourage you to reach out to your store’s independent owner to share more about your experience. Best of luck in your career endeavors!

Thank you for sharing your experience as a Cashier. We're glad to hear you had a positive experience with us! We know it is sometimes hard not to see an item more than once, but part of the fun in our stores is the "treasure hunt" involved. As you know, our stores are independently owned and operated. I would encourage you to reach out to your store’s independent owner to share more about your experience. Please tell your friends to come join the family!

Pros

The adjustment to working hybrid and remote since the pandemic has been commendable. Overall positive work life balance.

Cons

The culture is cliquey, if you are not in the in group or department you will have a tough time during social events. The company is riddled with nepotism. Many mangers children work here over other qualified outside candidates.
