Overworked and underpaid

Pros

My coworkers at the store level are kind and caring people, and we help take care of each other because the company surely won’t.

Cons

Low pay (most employees receive EBT and are well below the poverty line), micro-management to the point of implementing tablets that require us to take pictures of menial daily tasks, 9-10 hour work days without a break, health insurance offered is incredibly expensive, upper management and owner waste money on things like golf tournaments “for charity” (tax write off) and private planes while the workers try to scrape by on just above minimum wage (still paid well below a living wage), understaffed because of poor pay and high expectations, no holidays off (unless you’re management and above), they offer emergency financial help (that is funded by the underpaid employees), etc
