Pros

Maybe for the area, they pay decent. But they cause a lot of stress on families.

Cons

Very greedy business. If you get hurt on the job they send you to a doctor that does not even look at the problem and the doctor signs a paper saying you can go back to work (even if you cant walk or sit without pain). Not a family oriented employer at all. They pretty much work you like slaves and then treat you the same. Would NEVER recommend this employer to anyone.

Pros

I really enjoyed my coworkers and the management of the store. There were a handful of people who worked there at the time who weren't necessarily my favorite, but overall the team was good.

Cons

There we no significant cons. The pay is not the highest, but these are mainly entry level jobs.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
