Pros

My fellow cashiers and service clerks were very friendly and I made some close connections with them.

Cons

I worked at the Merrimon Ave. Ingles for almost 3 years and the management is horrible and EXTREMELY unprofessional. Ingles managers care way more about the value of a dollar than about the well being of their employees. I even had one of my customer service managers joke around to me about sex, EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL of someone in a managerial position. Most of them talked about other employees behind their backs saying really negative and uncalled for things. The Merrimon Ingles also doesn't have hand held scanners at the registers or conveyor belts, so cashiers have to physically lift everything out of the carts including heavy bags of dog food, huge 25 pound boxes of cat litter, and large packs of bottled water. I now have a permanent back problem and had to seek medical help from working there so long and doing this every day consistently. I could go on and on about the reasons why people should seek employment elsewhere. INGLES IS A HORRIBLE HELL HOLE please do not choose to work there.

Pros

-Rotating Weekends (Work Sat/Off Sun then Off Sat/Work Sun) -Flexible Scheduling

Cons

-You are expected to do a lot of work for very little pay -Being promoted is extremely unlikely and any wage increases is purely for inflation, not because they think you deserve it. -If you do not fight for higher wages they will not give it (I knew someone who has worked full-time in the deli for years longer than I, but somehow he made less than me) - Deli Management is very clique like, the assistant store manager has many complaints filed against him. -Expected to work holidays, no holiday pay or overtime (ever)
