Pros

-Flexibility -Good training -If you have S-tier good people its easy

Cons

-No work/life balance -Work 18-40k for free every year -Extreme lack of support from corporate. They know the issues but because people still work for them there's no change. -Low payroll and no real metric on how you get it. It's based of store size not sales or workload like they say. -Low pay keeps good employees away. -All your vendors or reps make they same or more than you do. Go work for them.

Pros

None. This is the worst company I've ever worked for. The pay is not commeasurate with the amount of work that you were expected to do. Dollar General runs their stores on skeleton crews and each person is expected to do the work of 3 to four people.

Cons

Everything. From dealing with incredibly rude customers, to the pay, to the workload and everything in between. Again, this is the worst company that I have ever worked for and I've definitely had my fair share of jobs in my lifetime.
