Pros

Very relaxed on when needing days off. Good for temporary work or someone needing only part time.

Cons

Because of stores being limited in hours all employees except management are limited to 29 hours. It made me sick when I found out I could qualify for state issued food stamps. No real training. I was shocked that the first three weeks I was there I heard nothing but how they beloved all employees were stealing from them. They waste so many company resources trying to catch employees stealing it's sad. I could go on and on. I am just thankful I only wasted 2 months before finding a full time job.

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.
