Pros

- The associates treat you like family. They are very accepting and caring - Other than cashiering, you have a lot of independence. You are given a set of tasks to complete during your shift, but you can approach them however and whenever you want before your shift is over - Double time and a half for full time employees on holidays - Wage freeze. No one has gotten a raise in 3 years

Cons

- Long hours - Must work weekends and holidays - They refuse to turn on the air conditioning in summer - Corporate management does not care - You are set up to fail because you are not given the resources you need to complete the job - Most stores are extremely outdated and look dingy & dirty - VERY slow, outdated computer systems and RMUs

Pros

Everything was a pro. That place was awesome to work for!

Cons

The only con is that is no longer a store in our community. Sadly, it went out of business.
