Pros

Wonderful coworkers the rule rather than the exception

Cons

7-Eleven, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of a Japanese corporation. Over the years, the company's autonomy has eroded, and it seems business decisions are made to the best advantage of Tokyo rather than US operations. There's a loss of esprit de corps and business continuity.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Steady hours, free drinks, meet an assortment of people, repetitive customers that you get to know and like

Cons

Low pay, bad benefits, and mostly working by yourself unless you're first shift, and then only on weekdays.
