Pros

High wages. This is making me write more than 20 words but there is really nothing else good I can say about working for this company.

Cons

Management teams are unorganized and don't value their employees. Awful experience for me and many of the people I worked with will agree. I was a Team Leader and a traveling trainer for about 3 years and I had been written up 3 times for being late in those 3 years and I was terminated for "excessive tardiness". Keep in mind that their definition of being late was if it was even just one minute after your scheduled time. Despite the fact that you may have worked late the night before. In those three years I witnessed many hardworking employees be terminated for trivial reasons, and the absurdly lazy employees got to stay. I even personally witnessed the sexual harassment of young female coworker by an older male coworker and the management team swept the whole situation under the rug to avoid embarrassment. The man was not so much as even written up. This company changes their procedures so often that you never know the correct way to do a task, and you will be berated for not doing something perfectly. If you want to succeed here, just be a lazy "yes" man and you'll fit right in with management. But if you put in actual hard work, you'll get criticized and passed over at every turn.

Pros

The employees are amazing and very kind. It’s sad they have to go through what they go through with toxic management.

Cons

The management there sucks. Most are 2 faced. They do not realize that they are in a small town and that to local people they are just a more expensive version of Walmart. Actually I would pick Walmart over this Buc-ee’s any day. I had 4 interviews with them for them not to even give a reason to why they wouldn’t hire except I was not Buc-ee’s material. If anyone knows what that means…… they micromanage everything. Employees are scared to do anything bc they never know when they will be fired at any giving second of the day. This place is suppose to be family oriented but they definitely are not…. This is a terrible place to work. You’re always in fear of loosing your job,. Money sounds good but it is not worth it if you want to keep your sanity.
