Pros

DeForest is one of the busiest, most successful stores in the company Lots of respect and leniency for mistakes; NOT a toxic culture Generous commissions only for processing credit card applications (it was $5 once but now $10 per application!) You even get paid if it does not automatically approve. Rewards going the extra mile here and recognizes exemplary performance Employee of the month program with $50 gift card and parking space (you can get it just by not questioning orders and doing what managers need you to do) Employee discount is 20%, works on 95% of the store, and can be shared with your parents, significant other, or children. A family with a son for an employee who mastered the registers can teach his family to save insane amounts of money. Deals can be made for a family like this--real ones. Actually appreciates their employees here unlike my previous jobs

Cons

$15 per hour Annual raises are 23 cents per hour Difficult to get medical or school leave, corporate will generally not give medical leave if they are not legally required I cannot guarantee other Fleet Farms are as nice as DeForest

Pros

Management was very nice. Fun environment to work in. Great scheduling.

Cons

Not very many cons at all. Maybe that some days we were short of staff in the back and had overloads of work to do and not enough time.

Pros

20% discount Literally just that

Cons

Everything else! Awful training Awful communication Awful scheduling skills lack of organizing lack of staff lack of an HR person Lack of general manager now too Infested with rodents! Probably more violations of employees rights and OSHA etc than I've ever fathomed possible in a retail environment! This was my first retail position at a large chain store like this and it was insane to me the things I experienced. As a cashier why are we basically forced into interacting with rodent feces without PPE? Awful situation all around. Won't be surprised if the company gets sold or closes stores in the near future.
