Pros

One of the best things about my job has to be the regular customers. When you work the same shift for several years you connect with the local crowd, it's always nice to greet them and make small talk. Although I have never personally met any of the Sheetz family members I do appreciate the fact they remain humble and visit the stores, I hear they are very nice. Quarterly bonuses are wonderful, as well as personal days and/or vacation time.

Cons

Things I strongly dislike, sheetz does not offer shift differential. I have worked overnights for years and make the same as ees on daylight. The overnight shift can be very overwhelming, there are ALWAYS only two people scheduled. On a typical Friday night there is one person cooking and one person ringing register, at times we are 8 off screen and you feel like a babysitter until about 4 AM because most people are intoxicated and cannot function. It's a major safety risk on overnights, we have had numerous problems with drugs in our store, yet we still have only two people and no security officer. Instead if increasing the wage I vote they take the extra money and add an extra person on evenings and overnights.

Pros

The company has an excellent benefits system for full-time employees. Stock options and competitive wages make this a great entry level job with room for growth.

Cons

The recent growth of the company has greatly affected the value of communication from the corporate level to the store level. Too many new policies and products and not enough upper level feedback is making the company very inconsistent.

Pros

Base starting wages and salaries, everyone hired at same rate, assistant managers and higher salaried. Usually make great friends with co-workers.

Cons

Inconsistent management, higher management incompetent (for instance, holding a district wide meeting, explaining some new policies the DM wants us to follow, go back to store and instruct staff to follow new policies, customer service issues arise during implementation, as DM was warned during meeting, DM gets customer complaints, DM calls swearing at management for issues with new policies, informs us to ignore them, it's just for show when the big boss is in town). Hours are always cut to below needs on every shift but the one's the store manager is working. When big boss comes to town, manager pulls three extra people to first shift to make sure it looks like he wants it, then he thinks, "store's running great on a 10% hour reduction, could probably even cut more from the budget!" Pay for management, assistants and above, no where near what is required for the work load expected. Expect to work long hours, be dropped from full time rolls, have your schedule reduced or changed at the last minute, be asked to stay late, have managers use the schedule as a weapon or reward, and to be required to come in to work with no regard to circumstance like weather, child birth, or death.
