Pros

flex-time, hybrid/remote positions, employee discount on gas & groceries at corporate-owned stores

Cons

no incentive to longterm employment, favoritism regarding hiring and promotions - not based on performance or qualifications, increasing profit is more important than employees

Pros

Pay was okay. Can be an okay job as long as you have the staff.

Cons

You work 2nd shift including weekends. So work life balance is slim to none. Inconsistent schedule of days off. One of the main perks of upper managment is they get to clock out at 5PM. So anything that happens after 5, you are on your own. Even if cops are on their way to deal with a unstable crazy person. Director just left. Incompentent managment that stacks schedule in their favor on their days of working and skeleton crew when not. CEO lives 3 minutes away and shops there all the time so everyone panics when he comes in and on pins and needles. (DW) Even though law requires a lunch, due to lack of staff you cant take a lunch but because they are so stingy with hours, they will short you a half hour per shift so you dont get 15 minutes of overtime at end of the week. Lack of staff because cutting hours is their favorite thing to do when over budget for week even though front end can barely function. Theft all the time but hands tied to do anything abnout it.

Pros

They are fairly good about the "we have fun here" aspect, gaining vacation time is pretty great, but hard to say that's worth it.

Cons

Corporate will send down signs that are completely wrong, and 1 person doing their job wrong at corporate means 100 stores having to cover their work, so be prepared for that. Depending on what department you work in, you might get extra help during your busy times, but you probably won't, because no one has extra help as they say. If you don't work in a department that they deam important enough, good luck.
