Pros

It's a job that allows you to make money if you are willing to allow them to constantly change your schedule after it has been posted.

Cons

Garbage management who projects their insecurities onto their employees. They don't appreciate good workers because they are terrified that you will somehow "take their job". If you are a good worker, you will not be appreciated. They will throw more and more work on you to make up for other employees slack, then when you don't finish the additional work, you get in trouble, while the slack employees just breeze along. They do NOTHING to punish bad employees. Enjoy watching them give tons of hours to someone who only runs 30 cases an hour, yet you run 60+ and all because of their insecurities. Garbage company. You may luck out and find a good store, with a good management team, but I wouldn't take the chance because they are few and far between.

Pros

They (management) can be reasonable at times, such as with your breaks and scheduling.

Cons

My current management isn't giving me enough hours to be even decently sustainable, yet they have open-shifts available that they could assign to anyone, so why not give those hours to people who are severely underscheduled? If you want your workers to work for you, treat them right and compensate them fairly, and stop expecting them to come in everytime you text them just because someone else called out, maybe you need to give the people who constantly call out less hours because they aren't being reliable, and you need to give more hours to the people who do come to work and get things done, because they've proven to be reliable and willing to come in on their assigned days.
