Pros
If you have good employees it will be the ONLY thing you look foward to, that and having a good repor with you customers.
Cons
Im not sure there is enough space for me to explain all the cons. First let me start by saying Im not just some person who dident like my job and Im trying to get back at the company out of spite, Im really trying to warn others that this place will suck the life out of you...please find something else! The last comany I worked for I worked there for ten years, I am not a quitter. If Dollar General had treated me half way deacently I would not have left. They will tell you that you only have to work 45 to 50 hrs a week but in reallity you will have to put in about 60 to 70 hrs a week just to make the store half as good as they want it...and good luck trying to get any help from upper management. The work load is insane for the amount of hours they give you to run your store (thats why you do it all...your salaried...free labor) this company is so micro managed its not funny...quite frankly I dont know why they bother having a store manager...o yeah the free labor...you will never get a pat on the back for a job well done. They usually only have 3 key carriers per store, the store manager, asst manager and a 3rd key. One of you always has to be on duty so you do the math, if you have a call off from one of your key carriers its you that covers it...on top of your 60 hrs to make they store "pretty". True story I worked 29 days in a row because my 3rd key quit some of those days open to close because my DM couldent...or wouldent find me some help. They want the store to look like a well polished walmart on 160 hrs a week, thats for all your employees and for some reason seemed shocked when you cant do it! Im sure you've been to a DG...90% of them look terrible, thats because you have one or two employees trying to do the work of ten. I would say that they should take a look at the turnover and get a clue but I was told by a person in upper managment that it really dosent matter to them because there is always someone else who needs a job...that right there said it all...all they are looking for are bodies to fill a spot till they quit and the next one comes along.
