Pros

Great pay Great benefits Great work life balance Great opportunities for growth

Cons

I mean there is a lot of work to do while you are at work, but that is to be expected with any new company. People will complain but you need to be ready.

Truly Awful

Pros

Good pay (switch-a-roo scam though)

Cons

Completely unprepared for business... Self checkout literally needs a supervisor every 3 minutes. Price adjustments aren't sent to the stores. Every sale item sold needs a supervisor to authorize it. Completely inexperienced store manager. Everyone quits. Least healthy food I have every seen. All non-food is junk. Stuck there till 3am on Wednesdays
