Pros

Great benefits. Nice upper management.

Cons

Training is a four-part, year-long process. You will shadow a General Manager, be a temp General Manager, shadow a District Manager, be a temp District Manager, and if all goes well- you will be placed in a district at the end of your training. Most likely, the person hiring you will tell you that you will stay in your desired region but you will have to be 100% relocatable. Don't be optimistic that you will stay in the region they promise. There aren't many districts but there are many LPP's. You do the math... I do not recommend this job if you are a bubbly, outgoing person. You will ALWAYS be on call which means your social life will suffer tremendously. You will be told you have nights, weekends, and holidays off but once you're in phase two of four (and the rest of your career with Speedway) this all goes out of the window. If you're like me, single with no children, you will be told you should work holidays and weekends because you "have no family". (Be advised of familial discrimination). I am a very optimistic person. I look for the good in every situation. I disregarded the cruel things people had to say about "gas station employees" (and despite my circumstances with this company, still defend them to this day). However, this job took so much of my energy and was a depressing first experience for work life after graduation. If you chose this career path, I wish you the best of luck. If you love it, I'm happy for you. If you hate it, I promise not every company is like this. Things will get better.
