Pros

Night shift isn't too bad, weekly pay, pretty hard to get fired unless you get caught stealing

Cons

getting raises is very slow, not many vacation days, union dues are always going up so getting a raise doesn't even do anything for you, the customers are horrible, management are a bunch of wimps who give in to abusive customers if they yell enough, no extra pay for working night shift, no bonuses ever, employee discount doesn't work on grocery or health and beauty products (most of the items in the store), lots of favoritism going on in management, they keep trying to run the store with fewer and fewer people and then they get mad when stuff doesn't get done because there aren't enough people to do it, nothing gets done when another employee is harassing you

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
