Pros

You will learn people/communication skills

Cons

This Food lion in particular always had issues and hasn't not improved even years after I left. The management is very unprofessional and there have been many times where I have seen the store manager in conflicts with other managers. People leave as quickly as they are hired, the pay is very poor and there is no room for growth. They are always short staffed and there is a lot of favoritism here. I really would only recommend to a high school student that needs a part time job because you will learn basic skills here but other than that, try a different location or a different company as a whole.

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.
