Pros

You meet the community. Dollar General is sometimes the only place every one is comibg together so it is a great hub for community information. You get lots of virtual training, called CBLs. This would be great second job for someone who has a calm personality and doesnt mind being around sugar, alcohol and tobacco.

Cons

The schedule at my store was inconsistent and the scheduler did not pick up my avzilable hours. The store advertises that items are on sale which are not. You really have to have a solid relationship with your manager to keep hours.

Pros

You have an opportunity to create good good relationships with your customers.

Cons

There is no work life balance. If you’re a store manager you’re expected to be there 24/7 if necessary. You’re also salary, so you’re paid for a flat 40 hours but required to schedule yourself for a minimum of 48 hours. No holiday pay, no overtime. You have access to two types of bonuses but they’re IF you qualify for them. You get little to no support from upper management and constantly told you’re not doing enough. They don’t care if you’re having staffing issues and still expect you to get the truck completely worked in 2 days and the store to be 100% recovered daily, even if you’re alone. Then they’ll either look for ways to write you up to terminate you or push you until you quit.
