Pros

Dollar General has an excellent commitment to its mission, Serving Others. They hire genuine leaders to inspire and develop talent. DG also has a dedication to promoting within. Some of our very own executives started in a store. DG gives its employees the opportunity to reach their dreams with a little hard work and dedication. The future of the company is clearly shared with employees.

Cons

The fast-paced environment that DG operates in can be a bit overwhelming at times.

I have worked for DG for 7 years and have been promoted 5 times. The company's growth, combined with its mission of Serving Others, makes it a great place to work.

Cons

As a discount retailer, we do more with less.

Pros

Flexible hours, great customer service experience, excellent advancement opportunities. Upper management is excellent. Work with great staff. Small general store atmosphere.

Cons

NEVER ENOUGH PAYROLL, Working shifts alone due to lack of payroll. Registers that breakdown. Low pay for assistant manager. Low pay for the amount of work expected.
