      Pros

      Received a pay check every week.

      District Manager had no personality, it's all about who you know. Poor training. Two faced environment. Impossible bonus structure.

      A Dichotomy

      Pros

      I met some really great people there, and it was a good way to get to know people in my small town better. I also learned a lot about how a corporate company really works...

      Cons

      The union was a joke, my job did not receive the benefits it was supposed to, the store was generally understaffed and unresponsive to customer's needs, and dealing with management was a nightmare unless you had the right manager. I also worked full-time hours but was given 1 hour short so they did not have to give me benefits.

      Good if you can take repetitive work with overbearing management.

      Pros

      There are a few jobs with over 30+ hours which you can live off of if you know how to live within your means. Benefits fairly quickly. Once Probationary period is up, you are protected from being fired after one mistake. Paid Training, even when you start up on their computer programs.

      Cons

      Overbearing Management, you don't typically hear praise unless it is used to set you up for some serious criticism. Lack of Communication makes the job unnecessarily tough. Many co-workers are lazy and do not do simple things such as taking their trash to the back or putting extra stock in the right place.
