Pros

flex scheduling and future growth opportunity to advance in the company with proper guidance with in the region and didtrict managers.

Cons

Not enough payroll hours, upper management such as the DM AND RM are constantly cutting budget on the stores so they can pad their pockets. Anyone who has any idea would see this. Raises and bonus incentive to assistant managers. They work just as hard as the store manager or some may work harder. Micromanagement needs to stop!!! STOP MICRO-MANAGMENT.

Pros

The job itself is easy. The cash register, stocking (especially the totes and dry truck) and cleaning are so simple however there are certain things that make it difficult, although the work itself is not (under the right circumstances.)

Cons

They never have enough people on shift so it’s always difficult to get things done. It seems like all the managers I know from the store I worked at and the surrounding ones are all so deep into drama it made me wonder if I was back in high school. Dry truck always seems to bring far too much and the stores are so little that overstock is a huge issue here. The reason I ultimately left was due to severe mistreatment and some safety concerns I had regarding some past experiences. I am very glad I left and I would not ever go back.
