Pros

The job is easy to learn, Majority of your customers are very friendly and when you get to know your regulars you form a bond.

Cons

They have a lot of work for you to do. You work ten plus hours a day with no breaks. Might be lucky to eat while doing paperwork.

Pros

Speedway is a large company- over 39,000 employees, that feels like a small one. Our management is approachable and has an open door policy. We have comprehensive training programs and we value the opinions of our employees. We have a promote from within culture that allows employees to do many things throughout their career and not have to change companies. We have good benefit programs.

Cons

We have a very centralized system for many processes and sometimes what works in Michigan may not always work in another area. Sometimes work/life balance can suffer.

Pros

You get paid weekly. That was really the only positive thing I could find about working at this company.

Cons

Where do I begin? - No breaks despite working up to 10-hour shifts. That includes food, water, bathroom, and rest. - No discounts, despite laboring like a slave all day - No deviation from a strict routine. - No creative thinking is encouraged, you must stick to the pre-posted guidelines at all costs. - No forward movement for career opportunities - Uncomfortable, poorly-made uniforms - Mandatory sales without commission - TERMINATION if mandatory sales are not met - In smaller stores, you will find yourself frequently working alone on 2nd shift (when things get very, very busy.)
