      Good Entry-level job

      Cashier
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Treats younger employees fairly. Flexible with hours and needs especially in regards to family or school. Customers appreciate the company and for the most part that shows through with a positive experience dealing with people in the store.

      Cons

      Menial entry-level work. A lot of younger teens on their first jobs and the expectations and requirements reflect that. "Managers" are often just people like cashiers or customer service who have been there way longer and have a superiority complex

      Good Job. But Starting Pay Sucks

      Grocery clerk
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Stable Company, Wont Get Laid Off, Good Benefits, Everyone is friendly. The Managers at the store I work out genuinely care about me and want me to succeed. If you show them your a hard worker they will just let you do your thing without nagging you. Will only call you if they need you to help them build a display. The free stock they give is nice. Worked there 2 years and already got $1600 worth of stock without paying a penny for it. Top pay is decent for a non degree job. about $15 for Grocery Specialist. If your a hard worker and learn how to suck up to managers Part-Time doesn't mean bad hours. I been getting 36+ for 2 years, and occasionally get over-time but mostly the manager will just send you home early on your last day unless they forget to mention it (score!)

      Cons

      They start you out at minimum wage and only give 30cent raises IF your doing a good job. I have a friend who got a deduction. They keep you at part-time way to long even if your giving it 110% and showing your worth it. Take your evaluation with a grain of salt. They purposely shy you back from "role model" just so they dont have to pay you the extra bit. My past 4 evaluations have always been 1 point short of role model. They deduct this by knocking me down on stupid stuff like dress code. Seriously? Its a uniform I wear the same uniform everyday lol. Your required to work crazy shifts, and if you close up on your availability that means you wont get good hours. I had shifts where I don't leave till 1:30AM closing the store leveling and filling specials just to open in the morning in the dairy department at 6:AM. It's all based off oasis which doesn't care about such petty human activities such as sleep. Those pesky computers!
