Pros
Occasionally consistent scheduling Some helpful coworkers and backroom staff Certain supervisors showed respect and had realistic expectations
Cons
Toxic work environment Constant pressure to work faster, even during understaffed and chaotic shifts Poorly stocked shelves and minimal training Little to no recognition or genuine support from management Unfair enforcement of policies and obvious favoritism Time-off requests often rejected without explanation Inadequate cleanliness and sanitization — managers would only clean before inspections, painting a false picture of hygiene Management often gaslit staff about the state of cleanliness and working conditions, denying issues that were clearly visible Some managers deliberately treated employees poorly to push them to quit rather than addressing issues transparently
