Pros

* Supportive and professional coworkers. * Some management communicated clearly when helpful.

Cons

* Management inconsistency and favoritism (e.g., being targeted based on relationships). * Poor enforcement of policies; managers sometimes ignored issues or their own rules. * Scheduling mistakes and lack of support for PTO requests. * Lack of timely communication regarding terminations or disciplinary actions. * Instances of management making false assumptions or accusations. * Safety and security policies inconsistently applied. * Concerns with accountability and responsibility for tasks (e.g., spot checks, projects). * Cashiers often have to deal with rude customers due to lack of paper bags or management “saving” them for later, leading to stressful and sometimes emotional situations.
