Pros

Alot of auatonomy in the job. You get a company car, gas card, cell, and PC. Senior management s really agressive and organized. Great place to work if you dont have a life.

Cons

Constantly squeezing payroll. There is never enough. Often forcing managers to work 50-60 hours a week for not much pay. Operations are 24/7 in some areas. They are only closed on Christmas.

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 Staff and the Customer.....

Cons

I don't Think they should not be open for every Holiday at lease close early on the summer Holiday so that the staff can enjoy it with there family's like the Home Office Staff .
