Pros

-The company is profitable and growing. -The stay with the times and are high tech compared to competition. -Stores are cleaner, nicer then competition.

Cons

-Long hours, expect no life outside of work -Expect to work terrible hours and work most holidays -Salary is awful for 50 hour weeks. -ASLs spend most there time as glorified co-workers running the register or doing trash, not by choice, but by nessicity. There is little chance to manage the store, unless you want to stay after your 10 hour shift when your finally able to do something other than duties. -Profit sharing only amounts to a couple grand, which is nice, but since ASL salary is so low it's not making up for the poor base pay.

Pros

Year end bonus is really the only thing was makes them different then any other company. It's a nice check.

Cons

I am required to work super long shifts. People think I'm kidding when I tell them that a work a minimum of 10 hours a day, 5 days a week, all year long......not just during busy times if the year. I've lost touch with friends and family since all I want to do when I get home it sit (been standing for 10+ hours), eat and sleep. There is a horrible work/life balance with Kwik Trip and they pressure managers to work more and more, constantly giving them more tasks and telling them to make it happen.I work hard, but will eventually move on since I can't continue to work these hours and start a family.

Pros

Job security and year end bonus.

Cons

Upper management leaves little to be desired. I feel like a slave to the company. The people who make big decisions for the stores have probably never actually worked in the stores so have no idea what they are talking about half the time. Don Zietlow and his wife like to spew their religious and political beliefs onto us at year end meetings.
