Pros

There are no pros to working at Dollar General!!!

Cons

Stuck on the register alone from 2 until 6 and still expected to get atleast 3 carts of toted items stocked along with your nightly closing requirements. Trash, sweeping, moping, cleaning bathrooms, putting returns and items left at registers back on shelfs, and your deposit and paperwork you have to do. They want the place ran like Walmart but will not allow you the hours to schedule enough employees to get it done. Most of the time the employee running the register is also the employee responsible for stocking the shelves.

Pros

The job itself is easy. The cash register, stocking (especially the totes and dry truck) and cleaning are so simple however there are certain things that make it difficult, although the work itself is not (under the right circumstances.)

Cons

They never have enough people on shift so it’s always difficult to get things done. It seems like all the managers I know from the store I worked at and the surrounding ones are all so deep into drama it made me wonder if I was back in high school. Dry truck always seems to bring far too much and the stores are so little that overstock is a huge issue here. The reason I ultimately left was due to severe mistreatment and some safety concerns I had regarding some past experiences. I am very glad I left and I would not ever go back.
