Pros

There are an enormous amount of career growth opportunities at Dollar General. The company is growing quickly and needs good people to manage the growth. The company has a team-oriented culture that starts at the top and it is a fun place to work.

Cons

As a low-price retailer, the company is lean and the work load can be heavy at times. It has to be this way to support the business model. We have to keep our overhead load to keep our prices low.

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.
