-TERRIBLE pay. I was working as a supervisor and customer service rep and near the end of my 4 year tenure I made a whooping $7.80 an hour. Entry level baggers at Publix make more than that. Hell, damn near every employer pays more than that. The fact I was there for 4 years and ended at an hourly pay was bad enough, the fact that I was a "supervisor" getting paid like that is just hilarious. If I recall we got $.05 raises every 6 months. That is an utter disgrace.
-No performance benefits. Maybe I shouldn't be complaining about this since I put in little effort and always was one of the, if not the best worker in the front end. But it would be nice if they ever paid extra to someone performing well. They always encouraged everyone to become a retail god (like most employers I'm sure) but didn't do anything to motivate workers other than making it something you should just do for the hell of it. Why is the dimwit cashier with a cashier score a lot worse than mine or a lazy supervisor getting paid the same rate I am (more if they've been there longer than me).
-Pushing carts outside in the hot Georgia sun and getting 0 appreciation for it. Got a beautiful farmers tan to make $7.25 an hour.
-Dumb customers.
