Pros

Some store managers are caring, helpful and don't micro-manage. Flexible schedule so its great for students.

Cons

Pay is super low, even for the convenience store industry. Employees are always being given more shift duties, but corporate will never increase staffing to meet needs, so if you work at a busy store, you will never meet expectations. Upper level management doesn't care about employees or customers - all they care about are profits. Things are constantly in need of repair because Circle K does everything the cheapest way possible. When you order something and it doesn't come in (due to Circle K's corporate error) you are blamed for the decrease in sales.

Pros

Surprisingly Great Access to Benefits. I opened up an HSA and had access to a company sponsored HDHP insurance plan, so it's a legit savings account. Well, they throw the food out at the end of the day, so if you buy anything while you're working there then you're making a mistake. Great work environment, like they can actually sell chocolate bars inside! -- What a bar.

Cons

Well, you can only stay there for so long. I found if you don't try out the deals then your particularly hurtful to customers, the caviot is the food deals are a waste of time. They'll work you if you try the stuff, so just don't try anything.
