      Pros

      - Very useful experience - Customers can be super friendly (really brightens up your day)

      Cons

      - Very high stress (at my store anyway) - Customers will sometimes go off on you for stupid things - No official breaks - You can't go anywhere to get food. You either bring it with you, or buy it from Speedway. - Labor is very tightly controlled to the point that if someone calls off or quits suddenly (happens frequently, the store is basically crippled, unless someone else comes in to cover. I also worked a lot of doubles, because of this. - They have never heard of a work-life balance.

      Speedway has started to get too big for its britches over the last 5 years.

      Pros

      Good potential if you know the right people, the pay is good if you've been hired recently, and if you like to dedicate your entire life to your job, this is the place to be. Monthly bonuses that can top into the $2,000-$3,000 range.

      Cons

      Bad communication from upper management, almost impossible standards. They tempt you into management with the possibility of huge bonuses of 2-3,000 a month, but the actuality is only 300-500. Mandatory weekend shifts. They pride themselves on training, but the actually training is hurried, incomplete and stressful because they are too worried about cutting hours to save money and don't have proper staff to ensure proper training. Managers get paid salary for 50 hr work weeks, but most work between 60-70 hrs and are on call 24\7.

      Pros

      Flexible Scheduling, Benefits, Bonuses, Great People, Fast Pace.

      Cons

      High expectations (which is a good thing) but ever decreasing labor hours to execute them. Constant job threats, there are more ways to get fired in this job that I've ever seen in my life. Even if you have an awesome DM the management above them will beat you down. This company has gone to a no positive feedback mentality, if they point out the positive you won't do anything better.
